Synergistic Antioxidation Properties of Tin Dialkyldithiocarbamate With Dialkyldiphenylalmine

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thin film micro oxidation test (TMOT) were employed to evaluate the antioxidation properties of tin dialkyldithiocarbamate (SnDDC) with p,p^′dioctyldiphenylamine (DODPA) antioxidant in pentaerythritol ester (PE) or polyalphaolefin synthetic lubricant (PAO), and their chemical structure were identified by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. DSC test shows that incipient oxidation temperature and oxidation induction time of DODPA-containing PE were improved significantly by SnDDC addition, SnDDC shows a good oxidative synergism with DODPA antioxidant. TMOT results indicates that the combination of SnDDC and DODPA in polyalphaolefin can also effectively reduce the weight lost, carbonyl peak square index and diposits of oxidized oils, which confirm that the combination of SnDDC and DODPA exhibit good synergistic antioxidation properties and deposits inhibition.
