Abstract

It has unexpectedly been found that the combination of (1) an alkylated diphenylamine, (2) a sulfurized olefin/fatty oil and/or an ashless dialkyldithiocarbamate, and (3) an alkylated phenothiazine, is highly effective at controlling crankcase lubricant oxidation and deposit formation. The present invention includes lubricating compositions, lubricating additives, and methods for improving the antioxidancy and/or deposit formation properties of a lubricating composition.
