having stable activity, was 70.5%. On ASK in this case the Value was 13-3% with an overall conversion of 15.6%. On comparing catalysts according to the formation of an ortho-isomer, in case of stable activity, over 80% 2-~-MBP is formed on Zeokar-2. Results therefore indicate that AShNTs-3 and Zeokar-2 industrial catalysts containing zeolite are effective and have high ortho-orientation ability in arylalkylation of phenol with styrene. SUMMARY

1. AShNTs-3 and Zeokar-2 industrial catalysts containing zeolite have higher activity and selectivity in arylalkylation of phenol with styrene than ASK catalysts. 2. Heat and steam treatment of catalysts containing zeolite reduces polymerization properties and stabilizes activity. REFERENCES

KINETIC REGULARITIES OF OXIDATION OF SOME AIRCRAFT OIL BASES* V. V. KHARITONOV, V. A. ]~ORISOV a n d O. A. Z~OROZ~SKAYA

(Received 18 August

1977)

THE development of heat-stable synthetic lubricants is an urgent problem of petro]eum chemistry. It is recommended to use polyhydrie alcohol esters and aliphatie carboxylic acids and aliphatic dicarboxylic acid diesters [1, 2] as bases for forming heat-stable oils. * Neftekhhnlya 18, No. 1, 112-117, 1978.

Oxidation of some aircraf~ oil bases

18

For the scientifically sound selection of aircraft oil bases it is essential to know the k~netics and mechanism of initial stages of oxidation. This paper is concerned with the study of kinetic regularities of oxidation of C5-C 9 monocarboxylic acid pentaerythritol ester (PE), di-iso-oetyl ester of sebacic acid (DOS) and MK-8 mineral oil. EXPERIMENTAL

The following aircraft oil bases were used for the study: MK-8 (GOST 6457-66), p 0.8782 g/eros; DOS, p 0.9154 g/cm3; PE, p 0.9917 g/cm s. Commercial pentaerythritol esters of various types (PEV), (PEL) and (PEU) were used in the study. l~ates of auto- and initiated oxidation were determined from oxygen absorption using a balancing pressure gauge. Dicumyl peroxide was the initiator, which ensured during the experiments a constant rate of formation of radicals 1¥~ in the temperature-range of 100140 °. The rate constant of initiation (k~) in the medium of the bases used was assumed to be kt in high pressure polyethylene [3]. Investigations were carried out at a temperature of 120 ° and oxygen was the oxidizing agent (absolute value of P ~ I atm). The reaction volume (1 ml) was heated for 5 to 7 rain and the initiator was added to the system after heating. RESULTS

Oxygen absorption after initiation should be considered during oxidation in the case of short chain length. Since the value of v is fairly high (between 6 and 30) in the system examined, according to a conventional system of oxidation [6], the rate of oxidation is described by the formula (1): W=k2" [RH].

i.e. depends on the rate constant of'chain extension/c2 and tlm concentration of peroxide radicals [ROll. According to the method of stationary concentrations, the latter is determined by the ratio

where WI is the overall rate of radical formation, equal to the total rate o f radical formation from the initiator (W~) and the rate of radical formation from the substratum (W~0); k6 is the rate constant of recombination of radicals [RO'~]. Since the ratio of k~[RH] is a constant value for each substance under given conditions, denoting it by a we obtain

An analysis of curves indicates that initial rates of oxidation of aircraft oil bases are considerably lower than the rate of oxidation of ClsH3~ hydrocarbon. Furthermore, oxidation is clearly auto-catalytic. As time passes the rate of oxidation tends to a constant limiting value Wnm. I f we assume that auto-acceleration in initiated oxidation of hydrocarbons is due to a gradual reduction of inhibitor content, the value of W~ being given, it is easy to determine parameter a from the value of Wnm (W~0 may be ignored, since W~0<

Experimental results indicate that the bases examined m a y be arranged in the following order in their ability to undergo oxidation (under conditions. of initiated oxidation): MK-8~DOS~PEV~PEL~PEU. MK-8 mineral oil is oxidized to a lesser extent under these conditions (120 °) than DOS and PE. This oil consists of aromatic compounds ( ~ 16%) and paraffinic-naphthenic compounds (~75~o). The value of (/c2/~/~) for MK-8 oil is close to that obtained for reactive fuels containing about 80% naphthene fraction and is in satisfactory agreement with results in the literature concerning individual hydrocarbons (Table 1) [3, 4, 8]. The value of ]c2/x/~-~obtained for P E is 4.5-fold higher than the value k n o w n for pentaerythritol tetravalerate [4, 5], which m a y be explained b y an increase in the number of methylene groups in the acid part of ester.

It can be seen that the chain length of oxidation of the bases studied is fairly considerable (v>2) and features of oxidation of bases previously noted suggest t h e presence of inhibitors [ Intt] in the system.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LUBRICATING PROPERTIES OF HYDROCARBONS OF OIL FRACTIONS AND THEIR ADSORPTION PROPERTIES ON METAL* G. I. K i c n x i ~ and A. A. MARKOV (Received 28 July 1976)

.ADsoRPTION of lubricants by metal surfaces is of considerable significance ir~ technology. I t is assumed that in the majority of cases the wear of friction surfaces with boundary lubrication is prevented as a rpsult of the adsorption of lubricant constituents or additives, which under high conditions of friction are converted from adsorbed layers into chemically modified ones. It is assumed t h a t the more intensive the adsorption, the more effectively the lubricant protects the friction surface from wear [1-3]. From this p o i n t of view it was interesting to examine the adsorption properties of individual groups of hydrocarbons contained in mineral oils in relation to metals. To solve this problem we used two methods: measurements of electron release energy (EI~.E) of the metal [3] and adsorption heat using a continuoua calorimeter [4]. * Neftekhimiya 18, No. 1, 133-137, 1978.
