Abstract:
The invention relates to a lubricant which contains solid particles that are dispersed in an organic matrix and have a mean particle size of between 1 and 500 nm. The lubricant preferably contains between 0.05 and 30 % by weight, in relation to the total formulation, of solid particles. The organic matrix is preferably selected from among native or mineral oils or fats, carboxylic acid salts with between 12 and 44 carbon atoms, waxes and organic polymers. The solid particles are preferably selected from the metal oxides, metal hydroxides, metal nitrides, metal carbides, metal phosphides, metal borides and metal sulfides and preferably have a hydrophobic coating. The above lubricants can be used to lubricate parts moving in relation to each other, as forming aid, cutting fluid and rolling oil emulsion.
Abstract:
This invention discloses novel catalyzed lubricant additives and catalyzed lubricant systems, which contain one or more catalysts, along with optional other additives, wherein the catalysts serve to accelerate the rate and increase the yield of the lubricant bonding reactions between the catalyzed lubricants and the wear surfaces being lubricated.
Abstract:
A water-soluble cutting fluid which possesses excellent cooling capability and lubricity and does not adversely affect the environment. An aqueous solution comprising hydrogencarbonate ions, bromide ions, carbonate ions, and optionally fluoride ions and having a pH value regulated to 7.0 to 11.5 as such is used as the cutting fluid, or alternatively may be mixed with additives, such as a rust preventive, to prepare a water-soluble cutting fluid which may be used as an alternative to conventional cutting oils.
Abstract:
An aqueous antimicrobial conveyor track lubricant composition is provided, comprising: (a) an effective lubricating amount of neutralised C8-C22 fatty acid soap; (b) an effective antimicrobial amount of silver ions; (c) an amount of base sufficient to set the pH of the composition at from 8 to 11. Furthermore, the invention provides a concentrate, which upon dilution with water, forms this aqueous antimicrobial composition. The invention also relates to the use of silver ions as an antimicrobial constituent in a soap based conveyor track lubricant composition.
Abstract:
A lubricant and surface conditioner for formed metal surfaces, particularly beverage containers, reduces the coefficient of static friction of said metal surfaces and enables drying said metal surfaces at a lower temperature. An aqueous composition for forming the conditioner by contact with metal surfaces includes a water-soluble organic material selected from a phosphate ester, alcohol, fatty acid including mono-, di-, tri-, and polyacids; fatty acid derivatives such as salts, hydroxy acids, amides, esters, ethers and derivatives thereof; and mixtures thereof and at least one of the elements selected from zirconium, titanium, cerium, aluminum, iron, tin, vanadium, tantalum, niobium, molybdenum, tungsten, and hafnium in metallic or ionic form. In order to avoid formation of sludge in the aqueous lubricant and surface conditioner forming composition, the composition should contain as little as possible of materials containing phenanthrene rings, such as conventional surfactants made by ethoxylating resin. In order to assure the minimization of such surfactants in the aqueous lubricant and surface conditioner forming composition, surfactants containing phenanthrene rings should also be avoided or minimized in earlier cleaning stages.
Abstract:
The coefficient of friction of aluminum can surfaces after alkaline cleaning and drying can be substantially reduced by adding to the alkaline cleaner a mobility-enhancing additive, preferably a surface active quaternary ammonium salt with hydroxyethyl substituents on the quaternary nitrogen atoms. A can surface suitable for automatic conveying and high quality lacquer or printing ink adhesion can thereby be obtained, if desired, without including any substantial fluoride content in any treatment stage.
Abstract:
A lubricant and surface conditioner for formed metal surfaces, particularly aluminum and tin beverage containers, reduces the coefficient of static friction of said metal surfaces and enables drying said metal surfaces at a lower temperature. The conditioner includes (i) a water-soluble organic material selected from amine oxides and quaternary ammonium salts, ethoxylated castor oil derivatives, and imidazoline moiety-containing phosphonates and preferably also includes (ii) at least one of fluozirconate, fluohafnate, or fluotitanate ion, and (iii) phosphate and/or nitrate ions. Good resistance to damaging the friction reducing effect by overheating and to staining of the domes of treated containers during pasteurization can be achieved.
Abstract:
A lubricant and surface conditioner for formed metal surfaces, particularly beverage containers, reduces the coefficient of static friction of said metal surfaces and enables drying said metal surfaces at a lower temperature. The conditioner is formed by contacting the metal surface with an aqueous composition that includes a water-soluble organic material selected from a phosphate ester, alcohol, fatty acid including mono-, di-, tri-, and polyacids; fatty acid derivatives such as salts, hydroxy acids, amides, esters, ethers and derivatives thereof; and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
Clear water-soluble polymer compounds having a mean molecular weight higher than 10 and selected among the polyalkylene oxides, polyacryl amides, polymethacryl amides and the copolymers of acryl amide and/or methacryl amide with unsaturated organic carboxylic acids having 3 to 5 C-atoms are used in water-miscible and water mixed cooling lubricants to reduce mist formation.

A lubricating oil composition is described which comprises a major amount of an oil of lubricating viscosity and (A) at least about 1 % by weight of at least one carboxylic derivative composition produced by reacting (A-1) at least one substituted succinic acylating agent containing at least about 50 carbon atoms in the substituent with (A-2) from about 0.5 equivalent up to about 2 moles, per equivalent of acylating agent (A-1), of at least one amine compound characterized by the presence within its structure of at least one HN
