b) an emulsion stabilizing amount of a neutralized carboxylic acid obtained from tall oil and/or component thereof; and
c) from 1 to 10 weight percent of at least one overbased calcium sulfonate; and, optionally,
d) at least one additive selected from the group consisting of extreme pressure agent, anti-wear agent, emulsifying agent, rust preventive, corrosion inhibitor, anti-foaming agent, anti-oxidant additives, surface active agents, friction modifier, stabilizing agents, and mixtures thereof.
2. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the base oil is at least one selected from the group consisting of esters of dicarboxylic acids, dibutyl adipate, di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate, didodecyl adipate, di(tridecyl)adipate, di(2-ethylhexyl)sebacate, dilauryl sebacate, di-n-hexyl fumarate, dioctyl sebacate, diisooctyl azelate, diisodecyl azelate, dioctyl phthalate, didecyl phthalate, di(eicosyl)sebacate, and the 2-ethylhexyl diester of linoleic acid dimer.
3. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the neutralized carboxylic acid is at least one obtained from the group consisting of tall oil fatty acids, tall oil fatty acids containing less than about 2% rosin and tall oil rosin.
4. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the amount of neutralized carboxylic acid ranges from about 5 weight percent to about 23 weight percent of the soluble oil composition.
5. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the amount of neutralized carboxylic acid ranges from about 12 to about 15 weight percent of the soluble oil composition.
6. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the amount of neutralized tall oil ranges from about 5 to about 23 weight percent of the soluble oil composition.
7. The soluble oil composition of claim 6 wherein the amount of neutralized tall oil ranges from about 12 to about 15 weight percent of the soluble oil composition.
8. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the amount of overbased calcium sulfonate ranges from about 2 to about 5 weight percent of the soluble oil composition.
9. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the total base number of the overbased calcium sulfonate is at least about 400.
10. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the total base number of the overbased calcium sulfonate is from about 200 to about 400.
11. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the total base number of the overbased calcium sulfonate is from about 250 to about 350.
12. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the friction modifier is at least one selected from the group consisting of glycerol monoesters, overbased carboxylates, overbased tall oil fatty acids, triethanolamine, diethanolamine, glycol, oleic acid, ricinoleic acid, isostearic acid, erucic acid, tall oil fatty acid (TOFA), mixed oleic/stearic acids, and iso-oleic acid.
13. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the anti-wear agent is sulfurized olefin.
14. The soluble oil composition of claim 1 wherein the at least one additive is a phenolic compound.
