Abstract:
A lubricant coating disposed between a substrate and a counter surface comprises a reaction layer immediately adjacent the substrate. A bonding layer is immediately adjacent the reaction layer, with the bonding layer comprising a first composition. A low friction, lubricious layer is immediately adjacent the bonding layer, with the lubricious layer comprising a second composition that is different from the first composition.
Abstract:
A perfluoropolyether, a composition comprising the perfluoropolyether, a process for producing the perfluoropolyether, and a process for improving the thermostability of grease or lubricant are provided. The perfluoropolyether comprises perfluoroalkyl radical end groups in which the radical has at least 3 carbon atoms per radical and is substantially free of perfluoromethyl and perfluoroethyl end groups. The process for producing the perfluoropolyether can comprise (1) contacting a perfluoro acid halide, a C2- to C4-substituted ethyl epoxide, or a C3null fluoroketone with a metal halide to produce an alkoxide; (2) contacting the alkoxide with either hexafluoropropylene oxide or tetrafluorooxetane to produce a second acid halide; (3) esterifying the second acid halide to an ester; (4) reducing the ester to its corresponding alcohol; (5) converting the alcohol with a base to a salt form; (6) contacting the salt form with a C3 or higher olefin to produce a fluoropolyether; and (7) fluorinating the fluoropolyether. The process for improving the thermostability of a grease or lubricant comprises combining the grease or lubricant with the composition.
Abstract:
This invention discloses novel catalyzed surface composition altering formulations and methods and catalyzed surface coating formulations and methods, which contain one or more catalysts, along with optional other ingredients, wherein the catalysts serve to effect in situ chemical bonding reactions in that the catalysts function to initiate, to promote, to accelerate, and/or to increase the formation and yield of persistent, solid, corrosion-resistant, impact-resistant, wear-resistant, and/or non-stick surface compositions and surface coating films, which may exhibit pigmentation and other aesthetic features, and may be designed to be environmentally benign. The disclosed formulation and methods may be used to alter the surface composition and to coat the surfaces of vehicles, such as aircraft, and to improve the anti-icing characteristics of the vehicle surfaces.

The present invention provides a lubricant for refrigerators using ammonia refrigerant, comprising polyethers selected from the group consisting of a polyether represented by the following general formula (1) X—{—O—(AO)n—H}p (1) (wherein X is a residue of a monool or polyol from which a hydroxyl group is eliminated; (AO)n is a polyoxyalkylene group formed by copolymerization of EO and an AO having 3 or more carbon atoms; n is 2 or more; and p is a valence of X) and having 50% or more of secondary hydroxyl groups among the hydroxyl groups located at the terminal of the structure based on the total hydroxyl groups, or a polyether represented by the following general formula (2) X—{—O—(AO1)a—(AO2)b—H}p (2) (wherein X is a residue of a monool or polyol from which a hydroxyl group is eliminated; (AO1)n is a polyoxyalkylene group formed by copolymerization of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide and/or butylene oxide; AO2 is an oxyalkylene group having 3 or more carbon atoms; a is 2 or more; b is 1 or more; and p is a valence of X).
Abstract:
A lubricating composition containing an organic molybdenum compound having excellent oxidation stability that provides lubricity for long periods of time is provided. The lubricant comprises a molybdenum amine compound obtained by reacting a compound containing a hexavalent molybdenum atom with an amine represented by the following formula (1): wherein each of R1 to R3 represents a hydrogen atom and/or a hydrocarbon group, and at least one of R1 to R3 is a chain hydrocarbon group having 14 or more carbon atoms; or the following formula (2) wherein R4 represents a chain hydrocarbon group having 10 or more carbon atoms, s represents 0 or 1, X and/or Y represents a hydrogen atom, a hydrocarbon group, an alkanol group or an alkyl amino group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and X and Y are not hydrogen atoms or hydrocarbon groups at the same time when s is 0. A lubricating composition containing the lubricant is also provided.
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:
A new organic lubricant for lubricating and cooling tools. The inventive composition is prepared by soaking an amount of okra in a volume of water for a length of time and then straining said okra from the mixture of water and okra so that the remaining mixture forms the organic lubricant. Optionally, the remaining mixture may further evaporated to form a concentrated version of the organic lubricant. Also optionally, preservatives may be added to the organic lubricant to delay the fermentation or decomposition of the organic lubricant.
