Abstract:
The present invention provides an aqueous lubricant for plastic working which comprises (a) 10 to 40% by mass of a solid lubricating agent; (b) 2 to 20% by mass of an attaching agent having both lubricating and dispersing properties; (c) 2 to 20% by mass of an agent having both wetting characteristics and moisture evaporation-accelerating actions; and water.

A process is disclosed for manufacturing a lubricant composition comprising combining a superabsorbent polymer with a material for decreasing friction between moving surfaces. The superabsorbent polymer absorbs from about 25 to greater than 100 times its weight in water and may comprise a polymer of acrylic acid, an acrylic ester, acrylonitrile or acrylamide, including co-polymers thereof or starch graft co-polymers thereof or mixtures thereof. A product produced by the process includes the material for decreasing friction comprising a petroleum lubricant containing an additive, water containing an additive, synthetic lubricant, grease, solid lubricant or metal working lubricant, wherein the synthetic lubricant, grease, solid lubricant or metal working lubricant optionally contain an additive. A process comprising controlling the delivery of a lubricant to at least one of two moving surfaces in order to decrease friction between said moving surfaces, is also disclosed. This process includes applying the lubricant composition to at least one of the surfaces. The lubricant composition in this instance comprises a superabsorbent polymer combined with a material for decreasing friction between moving surfaces, wherein the material for decreasing friction comprises a petroleum lubricant, water, synthetic lubricant, grease, solid lubricant or metal working lubricant, and optionally an additive.

Abstract:
Within a method for forming a magnetoresistive (MR) sensor element there is first provided a substrate. There is then formed over the substrate a first magnetoresistive (MR) layer having formed contacting the first magnetoresistive (MR) layer a magnetically biased first magnetic bias layer biased in a first magnetic bias direction with a first magnetic bias field strength. There is also formed separated from the first magnetoresistive (MR) layer by a spacer layer a second magnetoresistive (MR) layer having formed contacting the second magnetoresistive (MR) layer a magnetically un-biased second magnetic bias layer. There is then biased through use of a first thermal annealing method employing a first thermal annealing temperature, a first thermal annealing exposure time and a first extrinsic magnetic bias field the magnetically un-biased second magnetic bias layer to form a magnetically biased second magnetic bias layer having a second magnetic bias field strength in a second magnetic bias direction non-parallel to the first magnetic bias direction while simultaneously partially demagnetizing the magnetically biased first magnetic bias layer to provide a partially demagnetized magnetically biased first magnetic bias layer having a partially demagnetized first magnetic bias field strength less than the first magnetic bias field strength. Finally, there is then annealed thermally through use of a second thermal annealing employing a second thermal annealing temperature and a second thermal annealing exposure time without a second magnetic bias field: (1) the partially demagnetized magnetically biased first magnetic bias layer layer to form a remagnetized partially demagnetized first magnetic bias layer having a remagnetized partially demagnetized first netic bias field strength greater than the partially demagnetized first magnetic bias field strength; and (2) the magnetically biased second magnetic bias layer to form a further magnetically biased second magnetic bias layer having a further magnetized second magnetic bias field strength greater than the second magnetic bias field strength.

Abstract:
A process for drawing wire employing a lubricant comprising perfluorocarbon compounds (PFCs), including aliphatic perfluorocarbon compounds (.alpha.-PFCs) having the general formula C.sub.n F.sub.2n+2, perfluoromorpholines having the general formula C.sub.n F.sub.2n+1 ON, perfluoroamines (PFAs) and highly fluorinated amines (HFAs), and perfluoroethers (PFEs). Such fully and highly fluorinated carbon compounds exhibit a very high degree of thermal and chemical stability due to the strength of the carbon-fluorine bond. Further, because the compounds are fully fluorinated, and therefore do not contain chlorine and bromine, they have zero ozone depletion potential (ODP). Further, because the compounds are photochemically non-reactive in the atmosphere, they are not precursors to photochemical smog and are exempt from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) volatile organic compound (VOC) definition. Further, because they are volatile, the compounds are easily removed at the end of the process without need for an additional cleaning step. The process provides wire at significantly higher production speeds and longer die life with improved quality and less byproduct debris.

At least one of them further contains a lubricant (B) selected from the group consisting of a higher aliphatic acid lubricant and an inorganic lubricant.
Abstract:
Friction modifiers are composition which modify the coefficient of friction between surfaces to which the friction modifier is applied. They are similar in nature to lubricants but have different characteristics in certain respects. The invention relates particularly to solid friction modifiers which may be rigid or flexible. These friction modifiers comprise 20-80% by weight of a polymer medium, 5-20% by weight of a solid lubricant and 15-60% by weight of a friction enhancer. The composition produces a coefficient of friction which rises to above 0.20 at creepage level up to 2.5% between steel bodies in rolling-sliding contact lubricated using the composition.
