Abstract:
An exemplary embodiment is directed to an equipment lubricating composition comprising useful microorganisms. An exemplary embodiment comprises a water insoluble, water-absorbent substance and an encapsulated microorganism component including viable microorganisms. This encapsulating material may encapsulate and protect the microorganisms by essentially preventing the microorganisms from contacting the external environment. Based on the protection afforded by the encapsulation, exemplary embodiments may include previously inhospitable carrier compounds such as particulate machine lubricants.
Abstract:
A composite sliding structure having a low friction coefficient and high wear resistance. The composite sliding structure (1) has segment structure hard films (2) placed, with hard films separated from each other, on the surface of a base substance (4), a segment groove (5) formed between the individual segment structure hard films (2, 2), and solid lubrication layers (3) placed in a covering manner in the segment grooves (5) or fluid-like lubrication layers (3') placed in an impregnated manner in the segment groves (5). Further, a method of producing the composite sliding structure (1) is performed by forming, in a covering manner, the segment structure hard films (2) on the surface of the base substance (4) by using a physical vapor-phase growth method or a chemical vapor-phase growth method, and covering the segment grooves (5), provided between the segment structure hard films (2, 2) with intervals in between, with the solid lubrication layers (3) or impregnating the fluid-like lubrication layers (3') in the segment grooves (5).
Abstract:
A composition and method for providing a wear-resistant and fuel-saving coating on metals, particularly metal surfaces within internal combustion engines. A source of ammonium ions, an alkali metal in an aqueous medium, and the coating metal to be applied to the surface are combined to produce an electrolyte solution comprising a complex ion mixture. The electrolyte solution can be used to deposit the coating metal on conductive substrates. The coating metal may comprise phosphorus, sulfur, carbon, bismuth, boron, silicon, and combinations thereof. The electrolyte solution can be dehydrated in a hydrocarbon medium, thus providing novel materials for use as lubricating oil additives and as fuel additives. These new surfaces may significantly reduce coefficient of friction, smooth the flame front, reduce corrosion, enhance fuel economy, and reduce hydrocarbon emissions when used in internal combustion engines.
Abstract:
According to the invention there is provided a method of reducing wear of one or both of two steel elements having surfaces in sliding or sliding-rolling contact. The method involves applying an HPF friction control composition to one, or more than one contacting surface of one or both of the two steel elements. In a particular example, the HPF friction control composition comprises a rheological control agent, a lubricant, a friction modifier, and one, or more than one of a retentivity agent, an antioxidant, a consistency modifier, and a freezing point depressant.

The composition comprises (a) an oxyethylated aliphatic alcohol whose aliphatic hydrocarbon moiety contains 18 or more carbon atoms and (b) dissolved phosphate anions. Preferably the composition also comprises inorganic boron, an alkali metal salt of a fatty acid, and an accelerator for phosphate coating.
Abstract:
A lubricating composition which may contain up to 70 weight percent abrasive grit material for use with wire saw and slicing apparatus for cutting or slicing hard and brittle materials. The composition contains abrasive particles suspended in a mixture of high and low molecular weight polyalkylene glycols and a suspension agent. The viscosity of the composition is about 50 to 700 cps.
Abstract:
Thixotropic, lubricious coatings (101) are provided on the web or surface area (38) surrounding a valve slit (36) or the like in medical, needleless coupling sites (10).
Abstract:
A metal working water or composition which has excellent cooling capability and lubricity and does not adversely affect the environment. Water containing at least one member selected from among a fluoride ion, a hydrogencarbonate ion and silicon, and a sodium ion and having a pH regulated to 6.0 to 10 is used as such as a metal working water. Alternatively, an additive, such as a rust preventive, is incorporated into the metal working water to prepare a composition which is then used as an alternative to a cutting oil.
