Abstract:
A process for treating an aluminium can, comprising the steps of cleaning with an aqueous acidic or alkaline solution, drying and subsequently conveying the cleaned and dried can via automatic conveying equipment to a location where it is lacquered or decorated by printing or both. At least one exterior surface of the can, prior to the last drying of the surface before automatic conveying, is contacted with a lubricant and surface conditioner forming composition comprising ethoxylated, hydrogenated castor oil triglycerides, and the can is then dried without subsequent rinsing, thereby forming a film on the can to provide the surface of the can after drying with a reduced coefficient of static friction compared to an otherwise identical sequence of treatments where the lubricant and surface conditioner forming composition is substituted with water.

Abstract:
According to the method of the invention, first a paste is produced from a plastics dispersion and fillers in order to form the plastics sliding layer. This paste is free from organic solvents and is applied to a sintered porous metal layer. The resultant multi-layer material is then sintered. Since organic solvents are not used, the risks to health and the risk of fire are considerably reduced. Furthermore, the composite materials produced according to the invention have exceptional resistance to cavitation. In addition to conventional fields of application relative to lubrication-free articles, such as bearings, these composite materials can therefore also be used in gear pumps and shock absorbers.
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 dilatancy liquid is a sol under a low shear stress and a gel under a high shear stress, and includes inorganic particles having a roundness of 1.1 or less, and a particle diameter of from 0.05 to 5 µm, and a liquid held among the inorganic particles. The dilatancy liquid is of high mechanical strength, and exhibits a low viscosity under a low shear stress and a high viscosity under a high shear stress; namely: it exhibits a large viscous-resistance variation by a shear-stress increment.

Abstract:
Lubricating compositions including crystalline boric acid and a base lubricant selected from oils, greases and the like. The lubricity of conventional oils and greases can also be improved by adding concentrates of boric acid.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition having improved extreme pressure and antiwear properties comprising a base lubricant and an additive consisting of from about 0.01 to about 30 weight percent of said lubricant of a mixture of a metal thiosulfate and a metal phosphate.
Abstract:
A lubricant suitable for use in an industrial forming process, especially cold pilgering, comprises a polyglycol as base fluid, a water-soluble inorganic filler and an organic filler.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a dispersing agent for use in dispersing a finely divided solid powder in a nonaqueous dispersion medium and a dispersion prepared by using the dispersing agent. The dispersing agent of this invention is a low acid value lanolin fatty acid and/or a salt of the same. By means of this dispersing agent, there can be easily obtained a homogeneous and stable nonaqueous dispersion from which the incorporated solid particles will not separate out or settle even on prolonged standing. Therefore, this dispersing agent can be used advantageously in a broad range of applications such as coatings, dyes, pigments, inks, fuels, lubricating materials and so on.
