Abstract
An additive concentrate having a TBN greater than 300 suitable for incorporation into a finished lubricating oil composition comprising: PA1 (I) a lubricating oil soluble sulphurised or non-sulphurised alkaline earth metal hydrocarbyl phenate derived either from a hydrocarbyl phenate or its precursors and modified by reaction to incorporate: PA1 (i) an aldehyde, and PA1 (ii) from greater than 2 to less than 40% by weight based on the weight of the concentrate of either (a) at least one carboxylic acid having the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is a C.sub.10 to C.sub.24 alkyl or alkenyl group and R.sup.1 is either hydrogen, a C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl group or a --CH.sub.2 --COOH group, or an anhydride or ester thereof, or (b) a di- or polycarboxylic acid containing from 36 to 100 carbon atoms or an anhydride or ester thereof, and (II) a lubricating oil, wherein the amount of lubricating oil (II) in the additive concentrate is such that the ratio of the weight of the additive concentrate to the weight of the hydrocarbyl phenate or its precursors from which the modified sulphurised or non-sulphurised phenate is derived is at least 3.0.
