FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention relates to lubricating oils. More particularly it relates to multifunctional dispersant viscosity index improvers having pour point depressancy. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     As is well known to those skilled in the art, lubricating oils for internal combustion engines typically contain a multitude of additives which function as detergents, dispersants, viscosity index improvers, pour depressants, etc. in order to improve the properties of the oil. It is found that it is particularly necessary to improve the properties exhibited by lubricating oil compositions at low temperatures. It is an object of this invention to provide a lubricating oil containing an additive which provides improved properties at low temperatures. Other objects will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

     The first and second monomers when prepared commercially may in fact be mixture of esters obtained by use of a crude alcohol mixture during esterification. The carbon number of the monomer is that of the ester which is the predominant ester in the monomer. Commonly, the carbon number may be the weight average carbon number of the alcohol-derived alkyl group making up the esters. 
     The three-component terpolymers of this invention may be prepared by contacting a mixture consisting essentially of first monomer, second monomer, and third monomer in the presence of polymerization initiator-catalyst and chain transfer agent in an inert atmosphere in the presence of diluent. Typically 58-73 moles, preferably 62-69 moles, say 65.6 moles of first monomer and 21-35 moles, preferably 25-32 moles, say 27.7 moles of second monomer and 6-7 moles, preferably 6.5-6.9 moles, say 6.7 moles of third monomer may be added to the reaction operation. 
     Polymerization solvent may typically be an inert hydrocarbon, preferably a hydrocarbon lubricating oil (typically 145 P Pale Turbine Oil) which is compatible with or identical to the lubricating oil in which the additive is to be employed present in amount of 5-25 parts, preferably 10-20 parts, say 15 parts per 100 parts of total reactants. 
     Polymerization initiator-catalyst may be azobisisobutyronitrile, or a peroxide such as benzoyl peroxide, present in amount of 0.05-0.25 parts, preferably 0.1-0.2 parts, say 0.16 parts. Chain terminator may typically be C 8  -C 10  mercaptans, typified by lauryl mercaptan, present in amount of 0.10 parts, preferably 0.02-0.08 parts, say 0.06 parts. 
     Polymerization is carried out with agitation at 25° C.-150° C., preferably 50° C.-100° C., say 83° C. and 0-100 psig, preferably 0-50 psig, say 0 psig for 1-8 hours, say 3 hours. Reaction may be continued until two identical refractive indices are recorded. 
     The product polymer is characterized by a molecular weight M n  of preferably 20,000-120,000, say 80,000. The component weight ratio of first:second:third monomer may be 56-72:24-40:4 say 64:32:4. These corresponds to a mole ratio of 58-73:21-35:6-7, preferably 62-69:25-32:6.5-6.9, say 65.6:27.7:6.7. 
     The polydispersity index (Mw/Mn) of these oil-soluble polymers may be 1-5, preferably 1.5-4, say 2.5. 
     In a typical reaction, the monomers are charged to the reactor together with polymerization solvent followed by chain terminator. Agitation and inert gas (eg nitrogen) flow are initiated. Polymerization initiator is added and the reaction mixture is heated to reaction temperature at which it is maintained until the desired degree of polymerization is attained. Diluent oil (if employed) is added to yield a lube oil concentrate containing about 25-80 w%, preferably 35-70 w%, say 50 w% of the product terpolymer.

     and b is 100-260, preferably 120-240, say 142. 
     and c is 60-100, preferably 60-95, say 66. 
     This corresponds to polymer product containing 58-73 mole%, preferably 62-69 mole %, say 65.6 mole % derived from first monomer, 21-35 mole %, preferably 25-32 mole %, say 27.7 mole % derived from second monomer, and 6-7 mole %, preferably 6.5-6.9 mole % say 6.7 mole % derived from third monomer.

     In practice of this invention, a hydrocarbon lubricating oil composition may comprise a major effective portion of a hydrocarbon lubricating oil and a minor effective portion of the additive polymer. The minor effective portion may typically be 0.01-2.5 parts, preferably 0.05-1 parts, say 0.30 parts, per 100 parts of hydrocarbon lubricating oil. The total composition may also contain other additives typified by oxidation inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, antifoamants, detergents, dispersants, etc. 
     Typical of the supplementary detergent-dispersants which may be present may be the ethylene oxide derivative of inorganic-phosphorus-acid-free steamed hydrolyzed polyisobutylene (M n  of 700-5000)-P 2  S 5  reaction product; overbased calcium alkyl aromatic sulfonate having a total base number of about 300; sulfurized normal calcium alkylphenolate; etc. as disclosed U.S. Pat. No. 3,087,956 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,549,534 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,537,966. 
     Typical of the antioxidants which may be present may be zinc or cadmium dialkyl dithiophosphate or diaryldithiophosphates; alkylated diphenyl amines; sulfurized alkylated diphenylamines; unsulfurized and sulfurized alkylphenols and phenolates; hindered phenols; etc. 
     Typical of the corrosion inhibitors which may be present may be zinc diaryldithiophosphate; basic calcium, barium, or magnesium sulfonates; calcium, barium, and magnesium phenolates; etc. 
     It is a feature of this invention that the novel lubricating oil compositions may be characterized by improved pour point when the novel additives are present in amount of 0.005-1 w%, preferably 0.01-0.75 w%, say 0.3 w% of the lubricating oil. 
     Typically, it may be possible to treat a base lubricating oil of pour point of +25° F. by addition of only 0.3 w% of additive to yield a product having a pour point of minus 40° F. Prior art additives are typically added in much greater quantities (eg 2.30 w%) to achieve such a pour point. Alternatively use of the same quantity of additive as has heretofore been used with prior art pour point depressants (eg 0.3 w%) will yield a pour point of minus 40° F. with the additive system of the instant invention and only of minus 20° F. with typical prior art additives. Pour point is commonly measured by ASTM D-97. 
     When used as a pour point depressant, it is preferred that the molecular weight M n  of the polymer be 20,000-120,000, preferably 50,000-90,000, say 80,000. 
     It is also a feature of this invention that the novel additives may be used as dispersancy improvers when present in lubricating oil compositions in effective amount of 0.15 w%-1.25 w%, preferably 0.2 w%-0.5 w%, say 0.38 w%. When dispersancy is primarily desired, the molecular weight M n  of the polymer may be 20,000-120,000, say 80,000. 
     The novel additives of this invention may impart viscosity index improvement to lubricating oils when present in amount of 0.25 w%-2.5 w%, preferably 0.6 w%-2 w%, say 1.24 w%. When they are employed primarily as viscosity index improvers, the molecular weight M n  may be 20,000-150,000, preferably 40,000-120,000, say 80,000. 
     Viscosity Index is measured by ASTM D-2270. 
     It is a feature of the terpolymer additives of this invention (which consist essentially of first, second and third monomer components) that they unexpectedly provide improvements in pour depressancy, dispersancy, and viscosity index, i.e. they may be used, either in whole or in part, to provide all of these functions. When it is desired to utilize the novel additive to provide all three of these functions, it is preferred that the additive be present in amount of 0.15-0.5 w%, say 0.38 w% of the lubricating oil composition. In this instance the molecular weight M n  may be 20,000-120,000, preferably 40,000-90,000, say 80,000.

     From the above Table, it may be noted that use of 5.78 w% dispersant polymethacrylate/oil concentrate yields a formulation having a pour point of -35° F. by the Ford Max Pour Test and a borderline pumping temperature of -34° C. by the MRV Test.

     (iv) The instant invention (Example IX) shows better performance than is obtained in the control (Example XI) wherein the polymethacrylate (q.v. U.S. Pat. No. 4,021,357) is used at a concentration which is greater by a factor of (4.70/0.64) or 7.3. 
     (v) The instant invention of Example IX has better low temperature performance than is attained in control Example X* wherein the polymethacrylate (q.v. U.S. Pat. No. 4,021,357) is used at higher concentration. 
     EXAMPLES XII-XV 
     In this series of Examples, the procedure of Example I is generally followed except that the weight ratio (R) of Neodol 25L lauryl methacrylate to Alfol 1620 stearyl methacrylate in the polymer is varied. The product polymers are tested at 0.32 wt. % concentration of active ingredient in the same base oil as used in Example V. The tests results are as follows: 
     
                       TABLE______________________________________               Ford Max  Federal StableExample  Ratio (R)  Pour °F.

     From the above Table, it appears that if the Ford Max Pour Point is the determinative value, the preferred Ratio (R) may be about 58/42. If the Federal Stable Pour Test is the determinative value, the preferred Ratio (R) may be about 65/35. If both tests taken together are the determinant, then the preferred ratio may be 67/33. 
     EXAMPLE XVI-XIX 
     In this series of Examples, the procedure of Example I is generally followed except that the molecular weight M w  of the product polymer is controlled by use of lauryl mercaptan as chain transfer agent. The weight ratio of reactants is as set forth in Example I. The thickening power (cSt) @ 100° C. of the polymer (2.9 w% in a common base oil) is measured as is the molecular weight M w . The results are as follows: 
     
                       TABLE______________________________________   Thickening        Ford Max                             Federal StableExample Power     --M.sub.w                     Pour of Pour of °C.______________________________________XVI     6.85      176,000 -17.5   -31XVII    8.30      180,000 -25     -31XVIII   12.67     183,000 -20     -26XIX     17.85     240,000 -20     -36______________________________________ 
    
     From this Table, it is apparent that if the Ford Max Pour Point is the determinative criterion, the preferred additive to employ is that of Example XVII having a M w  of 180,000. If the Federal Stable Pour Point is the determinative criterion, the additive should preferably have a M w  of about 240,000. 
     EXAMPLE XX 
     In this series of Examples, it is shown that the novel product of this invention provides dispersant credit when used at 2.95 w% concentration of active ingredient in the following base oil: 
     
                       TABLE______________________________________Component               W %______________________________________SNO-130 oil             75.25SNO-335 oil             21.74Zinc Dithiophosphate (as antiwear agent)                   1.12Dinonyl diphenylamine   0.39(a antioxidant)Magnesium sulfonate     1.50(a detergent)Silicone anti-foamant   (150 ppm)______________________________________ 
    
     In experimental Example XX, the product of Example I is present in the base oil, and the formulation is tested in the Bench VC Test. In this test, the ability of an additive to serve as a dispersant is determined by measuring the turbidity of an oil after addition of synthetic blow-by. The oil is rated against three standards, one of which is characterized by excellent dispersancy; and another by good dispersancy and another by poor dispersancy. Rating is on a scale of 0-100. Low ratings at or below that of the oil of good dispersancy are an indication that the oil is a candidate for use as a dispersancy additive. The results are as follows:

     From this table, it is apparent that the novel product is a high performance dispersant, and it is commparable to presently used dispersant additives. 
     EXAMPLE XXI 
     This example demonstrates that the novel product of Example I is a viscosity index improver. When mixed in amount of 5 parts with 95 parts of Solvent Neutral Oil 130, the following are recorded:

     Thickening Power is determined by subtracting the Kinematic Viscosity of the oil from the Kinematic Viscosity of the oil containing the additive. 
     From the above table, it is apparent that the additive of this invention posseseses thickening power. Other commercial additives such as dispersant polymethacrylate have thickening powers of only about 1.0-1.5 cSt. 
     Although this invention has been illustrated by reference to specific embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made which clearly fall within the scope of this invention.
A multifunctional additive for lube oils contains a terpolymer of lauryl methacrylate, stearyl methacrylate, and N,N-dimethylaminopropyl methacrylamide.
