  By the way, as a bearing in a compressor of a refrigeration air conditioner or the like, a bearing made of an alloy containing lead (lead-containing bearing) is used for the purpose of reducing friction in the bearing. In recent years, bearings that do not contain lead have been developed from the viewpoint of environmental problems, but use of lead-containing bearings is unavoidable when the sliding conditions are severe.

  However, when a lead-containing bearing is used under severe sliding conditions, lead is eluted from the bearing into the refrigerating machine oil due to an increase in bearing temperature, deterioration of the refrigerating machine oil, etc. May cause a drop. In particular, the elution of lead in the compressor has a great influence on the stability of the refrigerating machine oil, and can cause the long-term reliability of the refrigerating air-conditioning equipment to be impaired. Therefore, refrigerating machine oil is required to have improved compatibility with lead-containing bearings.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and exhibits sufficiently high thermal and chemical stability even when used in a refrigerating and air-conditioning apparatus including a lead-containing bearing, and lead elution. It aims at providing the refrigerating machine oil composition which can fully suppress this.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors first studied the suppression of heat generation at the sliding portion due to the addition of the extreme pressure agent, and the improvement of the stability of the refrigerating machine oil by the addition of an acid scavenger to the refrigerating machine oil. However, it has been found that conventionally known extreme pressure agents and acid scavengers do not have a sufficient effect on lead-containing bearings. As a result of further investigations, the present inventors have found that the above-mentioned problems can be solved by incorporating a specific compound described later in the refrigerating machine oil, and have completed the present invention.

［上記式（ＩＩ）中、Ｒ ^２ は炭素数１〜２４のアルキル基又は炭素数２〜２４のアルケニル基を示す。］ That is, the refrigerating machine oil composition of the present invention is characterized by containing a predetermined base oil, a compound represented by the following general formula (II), and a glycidyl ester type epoxy compound.

In [the formula (II), ^{R 2} represents an alkyl or alkenyl group having a carbon number of 2 to 24 1 to 24 carbon atoms. ]

According to the refrigerating machine oil composition of the present invention, the compound represented by the general formula (II) and the epoxy compound are contained in a predetermined base oil to be used for a refrigerating and air-conditioning apparatus including a lead-containing bearing. However, it is possible to provide a refrigerating machine oil composition that exhibits sufficiently high thermal and chemical stability and that can sufficiently suppress the elution of lead. Moreover, according to the refrigerating machine oil composition of the present invention, it is possible to stably operate the refrigerating and air-conditioning equipment for a long time.

The reason why the above effect can be obtained by adding the compound represented by the general formula (II) to a predetermined base oil is not necessarily clear, but the present inventors infer as follows. That is, it is considered that the elution of lead into the refrigerating machine oil occurs because an acid derived from a predetermined base oil acts on the lead-containing bearing. In the present invention, by adding the compound represented by the general formula ( II ) to a predetermined base oil, the thermal and chemical stability of the base oil is enhanced, and as a result, the generation of acid from the base oil is prevented. It is considered that lead elution is also suppressed. In addition, even if a small amount of lead is eluted, it is considered that the deterioration of the refrigerator oil composition can be more sufficiently suppressed due to the effect of improving the thermal and chemical stability caused by the compound represented by the general formula ( II ). .

  According to the present invention, even when used in a refrigeration air conditioner equipped with a lead-containing bearing, it is possible to show sufficiently high thermal and chemical stability and sufficiently suppress elution of lead, A refrigerating machine oil composition capable of stably operating a refrigeration air conditioner over a long period of time can be provided.
