| abstract |
The present invention is directed toward compositions suitable for use as dielectric fluids, lubricant fluids and biodiesel fluids. Compositions described herein are obtained from a saturated, unsaturated or combinations of both monol, diol, triol or polyol acyl ester based fluid and/or a non-ester based fluid and 2,4,6-tris(di-C 1 -C 6 -alkylaminomethyl)phenol and/or the carboxylic acid salt of 2,4,6-tris(di-C 1 -C 6 -alkylaminomethyl)phenol. These compositions demonstrate improved oxidative stability and/or hydrolytic stability at higher use temperatures. |
