Description

Die Erfindung betrifft Kraftstoffe für Verbrennungsmaschinen mit verbesserten Eigenschaften mit einem Gehalt an Estern von aromatischen Di-, Tri- oder Tetracarbonsäuren und langkettigen Alkoholen.The invention relates to fuels for internal combustion engines with improved properties containing esters of aromatic di-, tri- or tetracarboxylic acids and long-chain alcohols.

Insbesondere betrifft die Erfindung Kraftstoffzusammensetzungen für Ottomotoren.In particular, the invention relates to fuel compositions for gasoline engines.

Es ist bekannt, daß man durch Zusatz verschiedener Additive zum Benzin die Reinhaltung von Vergasern, Einspritzdüsen, Ansaugrohren und Einlaßventilen verbessern und die Emissionen unerwünschter Bestandteile der Auspuffgase dadurch verringern kann. Im allgemeinen setzt man dem Benzin sogenannte Additivpakete in Mengen bis zu 2500 mg/kg zu. Diese bestehen im allgemeinen aus Detergentien, Korrosionsinhibitoren, Oxidationsinhibitoren, Vereisungsverhinderern, Trägerölen und Lösemitteln.It is known that the addition of various additives to gasoline can improve the cleanliness of carburetors, injectors, intake pipes and intake valves and thereby reduce the emissions of undesirable components of the exhaust gases. In general, additive packages are added to gasoline in amounts of up to 2500 mg / kg. These generally consist of detergents, corrosion inhibitors, oxidation inhibitors, anti-icing agents, carrier oils and solvents.

Trägeröle haben vor allem die Aufgabe, das sogenannte Ventilstecken zu verhindern und für eine bessere Verteilung der Detergentien zu sorgen. Darüber hinaus sollen Polyether und Ester als Trägeröle die Zunahme des Oktanzahlbedarfs von Motoren bei steigender Betriebsstundenzahl verringern.Carrier oils primarily have the task of preventing the so-called valve plugging and ensuring a better distribution of the detergents. In addition, polyethers and esters as carrier oils are said to reduce the increase in the octane requirement of engines as the number of operating hours increases.

Die Verwendung von Estern als Benzinzusatz ist seit langem bekannt. Ihre Verwendung als Benzinzusatz ist z.B. in der DE-OS 21 29 461 beschrieben. Die dort genannten Ester sind, wie in der genannten Patentschrift ausdrücklich erwähnt, thermisch instabil.The use of esters as a gasoline additive has long been known. Their use as a gasoline additive is e.g. described in DE-OS 21 29 461. The esters mentioned there are, as expressly mentioned in the patent specification mentioned, thermally unstable.

Ferner sind in DE 23 16 535 Trimellithsäuredodecylester und in GB 1 217 468 Ester von z.B. C,2-Cls-Alkoholen, die durch Oxosynthese hergestellt worden sind, beschrieben. In beiden Fällen sollen überwiegend unverzweigte Alkohole verwendet werden.Furthermore, DE 23 16 535 trimellitic acid dodecyl ester and in GB 1 217 468 esters of, for example, C 2 -C 1 s-alcohols, which have been prepared by oxosynthesis, are described. In both cases predominantly unbranched alcohols should be used.

Es wurde nun überraschenderweise gefunden, daß thermisch stabile Ester mit hohem Molekulargewicht und auf Basis verzweigter Alkohole ausgezeichnete Trägeröle darstellen, wodurch bis zu 30 % der üblichen Detergentien eingespart werden können, ohne daß sich die Benzinqualität, d.h. die reinhaltende Wirkung im Einlaß- und Gemischbildungssystem, verschlechtert.It has now surprisingly been found that thermally stable esters with a high molecular weight and based on branched alcohols are excellent carrier oils, as a result of which up to 30% of the usual detergents can be saved without the gasoline quality, i.e. the purifying effect in the intake and mixture formation system deteriorates.

Demgemäß sind Gegenstand der Erfindung Kraftstoffzusammensetzungen, die einen geringen Gehalt, z.B. 0,005 bis 0,2 Gew.%, bezogen auf die Zusammensetzung an Estern aromatischer Di-, Tri- und Tetracarbonsäuren mit langkettigen aliphatischen, nur Kohlenstoff, Wasserstoff und Sauerstoff enthaltenden Alkoholen, die durch Hydroformylierung von verzweigten Olefinen hergestellt worden sind, aufweisen, wobei die Gesamtkohlenstoffzahl der Ester mindestens 36 C-Atome und das Molekulargewicht 550 bis 1500, vorzugsweise 600 bis 1200 beträgt.Accordingly, the invention relates to fuel compositions which have a low content, e.g. 0.005 to 0.2 wt.%, Based on the composition of esters of aromatic di-, tri- and tetracarboxylic acids with long-chain aliphatic alcohols containing only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, which have been prepared by hydroformylation of branched olefins, the Total carbon number of the esters is at least 36 carbon atoms and the molecular weight is 550 to 1500, preferably 600 to 1200.

Die zu verwendenden Ester werden in an sich bekannter Weise durch Veresterungs- oder Umesterungsverfahren hergestellt, wobei die Carboxylgruppen im wesentlichen vollständig verestert werden. Als aromatische Di-, Tri- oder Tetracarbonsäuren kommen o-Phthalsäure, Isophthalsäure, Terephthalsäure, Trimesinsäure, Trimellithsäure und Pyromellithsäure in Betracht. Davon ist o-Phthalsäure bevorzugt. Als Alkoholkomponenten dienen Oxoalkohole aus höheren verzweigten Olefinen mit in der Regel mehr als 13 C-Atomen, z.B. Oligomeren des Butens wie Tetramer- bis Octamerbuten, d.s. C2,-, C2s-, C29- und/oder C33-Oxoalkohole und Oxoöle, d.s. Rückstände der Oxoalkoholdestillation der Herstellung höherer Alkohole wie Nonanol bis Pentadecanol. Die Oxo-Reaktion oder Hydroformylierung ist dabei die wohlbekannte Umsetzung von Olefinen mit CO/H2 über einem Cobalt- oder Rhodiumkatalysator unter Herstellung der homologen Aldehyde und Alkohole. Aus den Aldehyden kann man durch Hydrierung die Alkohole gewinnen. Einzelheiten sind in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, third edition, Bd. 16, Seiten 637ff beschrieben, worauf hiermit Bezug genommen wird.The esters to be used are prepared in a manner known per se by esterification or transesterification processes, the carboxyl groups being essentially completely esterified. Aromatic di-, tri- or tetracarboxylic acids are o-phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, trimesic acid, trimellitic acid and pyromellitic acid. Of these, o-phthalic acid is preferred. Oxo alcohols from higher branched olefins with generally more than 13 carbon atoms, for example oligomers of butene such as tetramer to octamer butene, ie C 2 , C 2 s, C 29 and / or C 33 oxo alcohols, serve as alcohol components and oxo oils, the residues of oxo alcohol distillation from the production of higher alcohols such as nonanol to pentadecanol. The oxo reaction or hydroformylation is the well-known reaction of olefins with CO / H 2 over a cobalt or rhodium catalyst to produce the homologous aldehydes and alcohols. The alcohols can be obtained from the aldehydes by hydrogenation. Details are described in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, third edition, vol. 16, pages 637ff, to which reference is hereby made.

Als Alkoholkomponenten kommen ferner aliphatische Etheralkohole mit je einer Ether- und Hydroxygruppe und mit mindestens 17 Kohlenstoffatomen in Betracht, die z.B. aus den Destillationsrückständen der Oxoalkohole Cs, Cs, C10, C13 und C13/C15 isoliert werden können und von denen angenommen wird, daß sie durch folgende allgemeine Formel charakterisiert werden können:

Figure imgb0001
wobei n 7, 8, 9, 12 und 12 bis 14 bedeutet.Also suitable as alcohol components are aliphatic ether alcohols, each with an ether and hydroxyl group and with at least 17 carbon atoms, which can be isolated, for example, from the distillation residues of the oxo alcohols Cs, Cs, C10, C 13 and C 13 / C 15 and from which it is assumed that they can be characterized by the following general formula:
Figure imgb0001
where n is 7, 8, 9, 12 and 12 to 14.

Unter Kraftstoffen für Verbrennungsmaschinen versteht man organische, meist überwiegend kohlenwasserstoffhaltige Flüssigkeiten, die für den Betrieb von Otto-, Wankel- und Dieselmotoren geeignet sind. Neben Fraktionen der Rohölverarbeitung sind auch Kohlenwasserstoffe der Kohle hydrierung, Alkohole unterschiedlichster Herkunft und Zusammensetzung und Ether wie z.B. Methyltertiärbutylether darin-enthalten. Die zulässigen Gemische sind weltweit meist national festgelegt.Fuels for internal combustion engines are organic, mostly hydrocarbon-containing liquids that are suitable for the operation of Otto, Wankel and diesel engines. In addition to fractions from crude oil processing, hydrocarbons from coal hydrogenation, alcohols of various origins and compositions and ethers such as methyl tert-butyl ether are also included The permissible mixtures are mostly nationally defined worldwide.

Die erfindungsgemäß zu verwendenden Ester werden den Kraftstoffen in der Regel zusammen mit Detergentien, wie Amiden der Ölsäure, Ethylendiamintetraessigsäure gemäß EP-A-6527 oder der Polyisobutenylbernsteinsäure, sowie insbesondere Polybutenaminen hergestellt aus Polybutenalkohol mit NH3, Aminoethylethanolamin, Dimethylaminopropylamin, Triethylentetramin, oder Tetraethylenpentamin, wie sie in US-A-3 756 793, DE-A-21 25 039, EP 244 616, auf die hiermit Bezug genommen wird, beschrieben sind, Korrosionsinhibitoren, d.s. meist niedermolekulare. Verbindungen mit Amid- und/oder Ammonium- und/oder Amin-und/oder Säuregruppierungen oder Triazol- sowie Imidazolderivate, phenolischen oder aminischen Antioxydantien, wie Di-tert.-butylphenol oder Paraphenylendiamin und Vereisungsverhinderern, wie Alkoholen oder Diolen zugesetzt. Hierbei ist die Kombination der erfindungsgemäß zu verwendenden Ester mit Polybutenaminen bevorzugt, wobei das Mengenverhältnis der Ester zu den Polybutenaminen in der Regel 1:2 bis 3:1 beträgt. Auch eine Trägerölkombination mit Polyethern oder Mineralöl kommt in Betracht; dies ermöglicht eine Verringerung des Esteranteils im Verhältnis zu den Polybutenaminen oder Amiden.The esters to be used according to the invention are generally combined with detergents, such as amides of oleic acid, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid according to EP-A-6527 or polyisobutenyl succinic acid, and in particular polybutenamines prepared from polybutene alcohol with NH 3 , aminoethylethanolamine, dimethylaminopropylamine, triethylene tetramine, or tetraethylene pentamine, or tetraethylene pentamine as described in US Pat. No. 3,756,793, DE-A-21 25 039, EP 244 616, to which reference is hereby made, corrosion inhibitors, mostly low molecular weight. Compounds with amide and / or ammonium and / or amine and / or acid groups or triazole and imidazole derivatives, phenolic or aminic antioxidants, such as di-tert-butylphenol or paraphenylenediamine and anti-icing agents, such as alcohols or diols, are added. Here, the combination of the esters to be used according to the invention with polybutenamines is preferred, the quantitative ratio of the esters to the polybutenamines generally being 1: 2 to 3: 1. A carrier oil combination with polyethers or mineral oil is also possible; this enables a reduction in the ester content in relation to the polybutenamines or amides.

Obgleich die Gründe für die Wirkung der zu verwendenden Ester nicht im einzelnen bekannt sind, kann festgestellt werden, daß die Wirksamkeit sich mit zunehmendem Molekulargewicht erhöht. Demzufolge ist die untere Molekulargewichtsgrenze nicht scharf und die obere Grenze allein durch die Viskosität, Handhabbarkeit und die Verfügbarkeit der Alkohole bestimmt.Although the reasons for the action of the esters to be used are not known in detail, it can be seen that the effectiveness increases with increasing molecular weight. As a result, the lower molecular weight limit is not sharp and the upper limit is determined solely by the viscosity, manageability and availability of the alcohols.

In den folgenden Beispielen wird die Herstellung und Verwendung einiger repräsentativer Ester erläutert.The following examples illustrate the preparation and use of some representative esters.

Die Viskosität dieses Esters beträgt 31 mm2/s bei 1000 C.Experiments 2 to 4 of the table show a gradual reduction in the intake valve deposits compared to operating with fuel without additives (experiment 1). For Test 2, a Solvent Neutral 500 with a viscosity of 17 mm 2 / s at 100 ° C was used. In experiment 3, a polypropylene glycol with a viscosity of 100 mm 2 / s at 40 ° C was used. The esters, some with significantly lower viscosities, already have a far better effect. Experiments 4 to 8 are esters of high purity, ie OH number less than 1, acid number less than 0.1 and ash less than 1 mg / kg. The C 2 s phthalate was prepared with an alcohol which was obtained by hydroformylation of a hexa-isobutene from the preparation of reactive polyisobutene according to DE-AS 27 02 604. The viscosity of this ester is 31 mm 2 / s at 100 0 C.

Für die Oxoölester sind keine Molekulargewichte angegeben, da es sich chemisch um keine einheitlichen Substanzen handelt. Vielmehr leigen Substanzgemische vor, die noch Monocarbonsäureester, Ether und Kohlenwasserstoff mit niedrigem Molekulargewicht enthalten. Die Hauptwirkung geht jedoch von den Diestern der höheren Etheralkohole aus, die in den Oxoölen enthalten sind.No molecular weights are given for the oxo oil esters, since they are chemically not uniform substances. Rather, there are mixtures of substances that still contain monocarboxylic acid esters, ethers and hydrocarbons with a low molecular weight. The main effect, however, comes from the diesters of the higher ether alcohols contained in the oxo oils.

Die Kombination der erfindungsgemäß zu verwendenden Trägeröle mit handelsüblichem Polybutenamin, hergestellt aus Polybuten MG 1300 und Aminoethylethanolamin, Wirksubstanzgehalt 50 %, zeigt die synergistische Wirkung der Esterformulierungen im Vergleich zu einer Polyetherformulierung. Die empfohlene Dosierung des handelsüblichen Polybutenamins ist für Formulierungen mit Mineralöl 350 mg/kg. Demgegenüber ermöglichen die erfindungsgemäßen Ester eine Einsparung von etwa 30 % an polymeren Detergens. Ergebnisse mit anderen Detergentien höherer Viskosität sind vergleichbar.The combination of the carrier oils to be used according to the invention with commercially available polybutenamine, produced from polybutene MG 1300 and aminoethylethanolamine, active substance content 50%, shows the synergistic effect of the ester formulations in comparison to a polyether formulation. The recommended dosage of the commercial polybutenamine for formulations with mineral oil is 350 mg / kg. In contrast, the esters according to the invention enable a saving of about 30% in polymeric detergent. Results with other higher viscosity detergents are comparable.
