Abstract

This invention relates to oil soluble, nitrogen containing sulfonated polymers useful as additives for lubricating oil and fuel oil, which are effective as dispersants and viscosity modifiers. The polymeric dispersant additives are ionic polymers which comprise a backbone substantially soluble in the fuel or lubricant, and pendant ionic groups which are sulfonic acid groups which may be nuetralized with an ammonium cation or an amine. Polymeric dispersant additives of this type may be made which are particularly useful in crankcase lubricating oils for imparting viscosity improvement, varnish inhibition, oxidation inhibition and detergency to the lubricant. These additives may also impart rust preventive properties to the oil or fuel, and as V.I. improvers they can be formed to have particularly good low temperature viscosity effects in lubricating oil.
