Abstract:
A lubricant is provided for use in hot working such as cross-roll rolling of a seamless steel pipe. It effectively reduces the friction coefficient between the working tools and the material under the hot work, thus extending the lives of the tools. The lubricant contains: (A) from about 10 to about 60 wt% of alkali silicate; (B) from about 1 to about 20 wt% of silane coupling agent; (C) from about 0.1 to about 5.0 wt% of at least one kind of alkali compound selected from a group consisting of an alkali hydroxide, an alkali carbonate, an alkali borate and an alkali salt of mineral acid; and (D) from about 30 to about 70 wt% of water. Alternatively, the lubricant contains: (A) from about 10 to about 60 wt% of alkali silicate; (B) from about 1 to about 20 wt% of silane coupling agent; (C) from about 0.1 to about 5.0 wt% of at least one kind of alkali compound selected from a group consisting of an alkali hydroxide, an alkali carbonate, an alkali borate and an alkali salt of mineral acid; (D) from about 5 to about 50 wt% of water; (E) from about 10 to about 60 wt% of iron oxide; and (F) from about 0.1 to about 5.0 wt% of at least one additive selected from a group consisting of a dispersant and a thickening agent.
Abstract:
Contact of acid or alkaline cleaned aluminum surfaces, particularly cans, with a water based composition containing a combination of (i) alkoxylated phosphate esters, (ii) ions of aluminum, zirconium, iron, tin, and/or cerium, (iii) a metal etching component, and (iv) a combination of alkoxylated alcohol and alkoxylated alkyl phenol emulsifiers, gives the surface after drying lowered surface friction without loss of high quality printability and lacquer adhesion and removes any brown spotting on the cans that may have developed during the cleaning or post-cleaning rinses. The cans after treatment are substantially free from any water breaks when rinsed with water. The foaming resistance and storage stability of the water based composition as described above, and of other similar surface friction reducing treatments for aluminum containers, may be advantageously increased by adding a biocidal agent, preferably hydrogen peroxide, and a combination of liquid paraffin, solid wax, and a high molecular weight fatty acid derivative(s) as antifoam agent.
Abstract:
The invention concerns the use of at least substantially water-insoluble dialkyl ethers of natural or synthetic mono- and/or polyhydric alcohols, the ethers being liquid at working temperatures, as the oil phase in agents for treating metal surfaces and in cooling lubricants. The invention also concerns agents containing at least such dialkyl ethers, corrosion inhibitors and emulsifiers. These dialkyl ethers are intended for use as mineral-oil substitutes.

These adducts are useful, e.g., in drilling muds and in viscosity modification of a wide variety of fluids.

Abstract:
Aqueous-based functional products such as household or commercial cleansers, household products, commercial products, and personal care products are thickened or viscosity-modified by the addition of at least one crystalline mixed metal hydroxide of the formula LimDdT(OH)(m+2d+3+n.a)Aan.xH2O, where m is zero to one, D is a divalent metal, d is from zero to 4, T is a trivalent metal, A is at least one anion or negative-valence radical of valence n, where n is 1 or more, (m+2d+3+n.a) is equal to or greater than 3, (m+d) is greater than zero, and xH2O is waters of hydration.
Abstract:
Piston deposits resulting from neutralizing combustion acids present in the lubricating oil circulating within the lubrication system of an internal combustion engine are reduced or eliminated by first contacting the acids with a soluble weak base in the piston ring zone of the engine to form soluble neutral salts containing the weak base and the combustion acids. Thereafter, the neutral salts are contacted with a heterogeneous strong base immobilized within the lubrication system but outside the piston ring zone. The strong base displaces the weak base from the neutral salts, returning the weak base to the oil for recirculation to the piston ring zone for further use. The remaining strong base/combustion acid salts are immobilized as deposits with the strong base rather than on the piston. In a preferred embodiment, trioctadecyl amine is the weak base and zinc oxide is the strong base. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the weak base is incorporated on a substrate, preferably a cement binder.

Also, useful compositions are prepared by incorporating into organic materials, crystalline lithium aluminates of formula I.
