Abstract (en)

New copolymer (I) is derived from monomers comprising M1, M2, optionally M3 and optionally M4, where M1 is a mono- or diester of (substituted) maleic or fumaric acid, M2 and M3 are different 2-50 carbon olefins and M4 is (substituted) maleic anhydride. New copolymer (I) is derived from monomers comprising M1, M2, optionally M3 and optionally M4, where M1 is a mono- or diester of (substituted) maleic or fumaric acid of formula (M1), M2 and M3 are different 2-50 carbon olefins and M4 is (substituted) maleic anhydride of formula (M4), provided that, if not less than 20 mole-% of M1 in (I) is monoester, i.e. R5> = H in not less than 20 mole-% of M1 in (I), then the M1:M4 molar ratio in (I) is (20-1):1: [Structures (M1), line 31, and (M2), line 51, page 19 and structures (M2) line 1, and (M4), line 21, claim 1, page 20] R1>, R2>H or 1-4 C hydrocarbyl in one case and -COOR5> in the other; R3>, R4>H or 1-4 C hydrocarbyl in one case and -COOR6> in the other; R5>H or 1-40 C hydrocarbyl; R6>1-40 C hydrocarbyl; R7>, R8>H or 1-4 C hydrocarbyl; R9>, R1>3>H or 1-48 C hydrocarbyl; R1>0>, R1>1>, R1>2>, R1>4>, R1>5>, R1>6>H or 1-4 C hydrocarbyl . Independent claims are included for the following: (1) use of a copolymer (I) as cloud point depressant (CPD) for fuel oils and lubricants; (2) fuel oil composition containing a major weight fraction of middle distillate fuel boiling in the 120-500[deg]C range and a minor fraction of copolymer(s) (I); (3) lubricant composition containing a major weight fraction of a conventional lubricant and a minor fraction of (I); (4) additive package containing (I) in combination with other conventional lubricant or fuel oil additive(s).
