Abstract:
Lubricant additives are produced by reacting an alkoxylated amine with phosphorous acid. The additives preferably also contain a boron moiety which is reacted with the phosphorous acid and amine, preferably in a one step reaction. More preferably, a mono-functional alcohol or a long-chain aliphatic carboxylic acid is added to this mixture. The additives are particularly useful in metal working oils and particularly as extreme pressure additives to replace the currently used chlorinated paraffin additives.
Abstract:
A high performance, environmentally compatible railroad grease effectively lubricates railroad tracks and wheels of railway cars in compliance with environmental rules and regulations. Advantageously, the novel railroad grease is safe for plant life and animals as well as for fish in underground aquifers and nearby streams. The railroad grease desirably comprises a special adhesive polymer and an extreme pressure, anti-wear additive package, preferably a food grade additive package, comprising carbonates combined with sulfates or phosphates.
Abstract:
A conditioning additive for an oil-in-water emulsion metal working bath includes a copper-amine complex and may further include a molybdenum-amine complex. The complexes may comprise the reaction product of alkanolamines and salts of the metals. The additive may further include pH stabilizing agents, wetting agents, corrosion inhibitors, emulsifiers and surfactants. The additive inhibits microbial growth, stabilizes the emulsion, improves lubricity, prevents corrosion and improves the finish of parts produced therewith.
Abstract:
A high performance lubricating grease effectively lubricates and protects caster rollers and bearings in steel mills and other metal processing mills. The high performance grease has excellent extreme pressure and antiwear qualities and is economical, nontoxic and safe. The high performance grease can comprise a base oil, an aluminum soap thickener, extreme pressure wear-resistant additives comprising tricalcium phosphate and calcium carbonate, and a water-resistant high performance polymer.
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 of 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 strong base is incorporated on a substrate, preferably a cement binder.
Abstract:
A sliding material used under a boundary lubricating conditions or mixed lubricating condition, and having improved, wear-resistance, low-friction property, and seizure-resistance, and consisting of (a) 10 to less than 69% of polyimide and/or polyamide-imide, from more than 30 to 68% of graphite, and, 1 to less than 30% of polytetrafluroethylene, MoS.sub.2, Pb, and/or BN, or (b) 20 to 90% of polyimide and/or polyamide-imide, and from 0.5 to 20% clay, mullite, silica, and/or alumina, and at least 5% and balance of graphite.
Abstract:
It has been found that a lubricating oil containing: (1) an alkali metal borate; (2) an oil-soluble sulfur compound; (3) a dialkyl hydrogen phosphite; and (4) a mixture of neutralized phosphates said phosphates being essentially free of monothiophosphates interacts synergistically to provide a lubricant with superior load carrying properties.
Abstract:
An electroviscous fluid comprising more than 25% by weight of silica gel with a water content of 1 to 15% by weight, a non-conductive oily phase dispersion medium, 1 to 30% by weight of one or more polymers soluble in the dispersion medium, the weight percentage being based on the water-containing silica gel, and the polymers having a molecular weight in the range of from 5.times.10.sup.3 to 10.sup.6 and containing 0.1 to 10% by weight of N and/or OH and 25 to 83% by weight of C.sub.4 to C.sub.24 -alkyl groups. Such electroviscous fluids are useful for transmitting powerful forces by means of a low electronic output, for example, in hydraulic valves and shock absorbers.
Abstract:
A waterbase coating composition for use in protecting the threads of metal studs during automotive production line phosphating, electrostatic painting and welding. Composition also provides controlled lubricity as well as even torque during the tightening sequency of fasteners by robotics.
Abstract:
A water-soluble metal-working lubricant composition comprising as essential components thereof(a) one or more polyetherpolyols having molecular weights of 200 to 100,000 and obtained by adding alkylene oxides to either one or more of compounds selected from(1) polyalkylenepolyamines and derivatives thereof,(2) alkyl- and alkylaryl-amines and derivatives thereof and(3) carboxylic acid amides and derivatives thereof; and(b) one or more compounds selected from phosphoric acid compounds and boric acid.Incorporation of a specific polyetherpolyol compound together with phosphoric acid compound or boric acid serves as alternative to conventional liquid oil-base lubricant with mitigating drawbacks such as poor stability of emulsions, fouling of surfaces, difficulty in waste water, etc., which are inherent in conventional lubricants.
