These are all of the claims remaining in the application. THE INVENTION Appellants claim a lubricating oil composition which includes a lubricating oil, a metal-containing detergent or anti-rust additive, and an oil soluble dispersant which is the oil soluble reaction product of a recited hydrocarbyl substituted C to C dicarboxylic acid producing material and4 10 a specified basic reactant. Appellants also claim a method wherein the above reaction product is included in an additive concentrate. Claim 27 is illustrative and reads as follows: 27. A lubricating oil composition comprising (i) a lubricating oil, (ii) a metal-containing detergent or anti- rust additive and (iii) an oil soluble dispersant, the dispersant comprising the oil soluble reaction product of a reaction mixture comprising: (a)a hydrocarbyl substituted C to C dicarboxylic acid4 10 producing material formed by reacting olefin polymer of C2 to C monoolefin having a number average molecular 10 weight of about 1500 to 5,000 and a C to C4 10 monounsaturated acid material, wherein said substituted material is characterized by a functionality ratio of from about 1.05 to 1.25 dicarboxylic acid producing moieties per molecule of said olefin polymer used in the 2Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
