Zusammenfassung:A method for improving antiwear performance and demulsibility performance in an engine lubricated with a lubricating oil by using as the lubricating oil a formulated oil. The formulated oil has a composition including a lubricating oil base stock as a major component, and an antiwear additive as a minor component. The antiwear additive includes a zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate compound represented by the formula Zn[SP(S)(OR1)(OR2)]2 wherein R1 and R2 are independently primary or secondary C1 to C8 alkyl groups. The R1 and R2 primary or secondary alkyl groups of the zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate compound, and the amount of the zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate compound in the lubricating oil, are sufficient for the lubricating oil to exhibit improved antiwear performance and demulsibility performance. The lubricating oils of this disclosure are suitable for use in marine system oils for two-stroke marine diesel engines.
