Abstract:
Alkaline lubricants for use with glass, aluminum and PET containers and other articles of manufacture are prepared from water-soluble amines. Fatty acid lubricants prepared herefrom are rendered highly dilutable by employing myristic acid as at least a portion of the fatty acid component thereof. Synthetic diamine lubricants are prepared by using the water soluble amines as the hydrotrope for the synthetic diamine, without the neutralization thereof.
Abstract:
Novel compositions useful as fluid gelling agents, especially for use in subterranean applications such as drilling fluids, are prepared by reacting an aqueous dispersion of a clay, such as bentonite, with an aqueous gel of a monodispersed mixed metal layered hydroxide of the formula Li.sub.m D.sub.d T(OH).sub.(m+2d+3+na) A.sub.a.sup.n, where D is a divalent metal, such as Mg, T is a trivalent metal, such as Al, and A represents other monovalent or polyvalent anions, the formula being described in detail in the disclosure.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of substantially spherical monocrystalline vaterite, in particular, of vaterite having a determined size.
Abstract:
An electro-rheological fluid comprising an electrically insulating liquid as the dispersion medium, porous solid particles as the dispersed phase, a dispersant, and a polyhydric alcohol having a boiling point of not lower than 250.degree. C., a melting point of not higher than 15.degree. C. and a viscosity of not higher than 300 cp (as measured at 20.degree.

Abstract:
A vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoroisobutylene copolymer powder is employed to thicken a conventional fluorine-containing liquid lubricant to provide a grease composition which has improved lubrication character in metal bearing subjected to the simultaneous conditions of high load, high speed and elevated temperature.
Abstract:
A low foaming, rust inhibiting composition is disclosed which contains:A. a rust inhibiting amount of a dicarboxylic acid of the formula: ##STR1## wherein Z is COOH or H, and one of each is present, and x and y are from 3 to 9, with x+y=12;B. a foam inhibiting amount of a triglyceride acid of the formula: ##STR2## wherein x and y are integers from 3 to 9, x and y together equal 12. R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are saturated/unsaturated hydrocarbon terminals of fatty acids esterified with glycerol; andC. a base sufficient to adjust the pH of the composition of about 6.5 to 10.5.

Abstract:
A new water-base lubricant composition has been discovered which is uniquely suitable for elevated temperature metal forming operations. The water-base lubricant invention herein generally comprises, about 1% to about 40% by weight of a polycarboxylic acid salt reaction product, such as trimellitic acid and an alkali metal or an alkali earth metal hydroxide, such that the pH of the composition is about 6.5 to about 10; about 0.1% to about 12% by weight of a water dispersible thickening agent; and the balance water. The water-base lubricant may also include extreme pressure additives, performance enhancers, and biocidal agents. Also disclosed is a process for using the above-described water-base lubricant composition.
