Abstract:
Greases comprising a mineral and/or synthetic lubricating oil having an hydrogenated basis, a fluoropolyethereal oil and an organic or inorganic thickening agent, wherein the weight ratio lubricating oil + fluoropolyethereal oil / thickening agent ranges from 97:3 to 80:20 and the weight ratio lubricating oil / fluoropolyethereal oil ranges from 95:5 to 60:40.
Abstract:
Disclosed are lubricating compositions having improved wear and oxidation properties. The improved compositions contain multifunctional additives prepared by reacting 2,5-dimercapto- 1,3,4-thiadiazole, aliphatic or aromatic aldehyde and aromatic amine in the molar ratio of 1:1:1 to 2:4:3. The 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole may be substituted in the 2-position by hydrocarbyl, terpene residue, polymeric alpha-olefin and succinate residues.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition comprising a water-based lubricant a particulate solid lubricant such as graphite suspended in the water-based lubricant and uniformly dispersed therethrough and a thixotropic thickener which maintains the solid lubricant in suspension in the water-based lubricant.
Abstract:
A composition which comprises (a) a salt of monovalent metal (M) of a carboxylic acid in which the COOH group is attached to a ring atom of a fused ring system and (b) a grease which is a non-soap thickened oil which may be a mineral oil or a synthetic oil such as a silicone oil. The metal (M) may be sodium. The fused ring system is preferably a fused aromatic hydrocarbon ring system such as naphthalene and may include further substituents, for example an -OH group, in addition to the COOH group. If the acid contains both OH and COOH groups, these can be attached to adjacent atoms of the fused ring system. Sodium 2-naphthoate and sodium 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoate have been found to be particularly suitable. The grease has improved corrosion resistance and the addition of the metal compound does not result in destructing of the grease.
Abstract:
Particles of thiocarbonate salts, thioesters or complexes are stabilized by being isolated from contact with water, CO₂ and oxygen and are encapsulated in a coating effective to prevent future contact of the particles with water, CO₂ and oxygen. The particles are preferably prepared in an environment from which water, CO₂ and oxygen are excluded. The coating may be a wax, a water-free oil or grease, sulfur or a natural or synthetic polymerizable resin. Various preparative and encapsulating techniques are disclosed.
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.
Abstract:
The invention relates to lubricating grease compositions comprising (a) at least one highly viscous, fluorinated oil having a viscosity of between 500 - 1500mm 2 /s, (b) boron nitride and (c) a binder which is selected from bentonite, alkali metal phosphates, aluminum phosphates, alkali metal silicates, alkaline earth metal silicates, aluminum silicates, alkaline earth metal carbonates, calcium borate, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, aluminum oxide and mixtures thereof. Said lubricating grease compositions can be used, in particular, in a high-temperature range, for example for greasing oven drawer rails.
Abstract:
The object of the invention is a traction sheave elevator and a rope that contains metal as a load-bearing material, such as the suspension rope of an elevator, which rope comprises at least one or more strands laid from metal wires and which rope is lubricated with a lubricant. Another object is the use of the aforementioned lubricant for lubricating the rope. The lubricant comprises at least oil and thickener, which thickener in the lubricant comprises at least 10% or more of the mass of the lubricant.
Abstract:
A protective coating is formed on a metallic material surface by applying a treating agent comprising water, an alkali silicate, and a lubricating component to the surface and drying the treating agent. The coating film thereby formed has excellent anti-galling and rust preventive properties. If a lubricating component is present, the coating film also has excellent self-lubricating properties.
