Abstract:
Greases containing a calcium or calcium/lead complex thickener, a terpolymer improver and a paraffinic base lubricating vehicle. The greases have a thicker consistency than is normally obtained with paraffinic base stocks. They are produced by introducing the terpolymer to the charge of the lubricating vehicle and thickening agent components prior to saponification.

Abstract:
Sodium tetraborate based carrier coatings for wire drawing are prepared by dispersing a water insoluble fatty acid metal salt in a sodium tetraborate coating bath. The carrier coatings on rod are made resistant to atmospheric moisture by heating at an elevated temperature.Carrier coatings on wire rod provide a vehicle to pick up the wire drawing lubricant in the soap box and carry the lubricant into the die. Since the coated wire rod is often stored for long periods between coating and drawing it is susceptible to corrosion from atmospheric moisture.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThe two principal carrier coatings for drawing rod are based on borax or lime. Lime carrier coatings have two main disadvantages. First, it is difficult to apply a lime coating since the lime floats in the water. Secondly, the lime coating flakes off lime particles in the work area causing disagreeable breathing conditions and dirty work areas.Borax carrier coatings do not have the dusty flaking problem associated with lime coatings but borax carrier coatings suffer from the disadvantage that they pick up excessive moisture from the air during storage periods in the hot humid spring and summer weather. Excessive moisture from the air causes the borax coating to become soft and unuseable with the result that the coil must be sent back for recoating.In addition to providing a carrier to pick up the drawing lubricant and carry it into the die the carrier coating should also be compatible with the wire processing steps following the drawing operation. If the wire is to be copper or tin coated then the carrier coating residue must be easily removed in a cleaning operation. If the wire is to be welded it is important that the carrier coating does not interfere with the welding operation. If the wire is for making nails then the carrier coating should not interfere with any wire cutting operation in the nail machine. Any lubricating qualities provided by the carrier coating is, of course, an added advantage.SUMMARY OF INVENTIONI have now discovered that if a substantial amount of a water-insoluble metal soap is incorporated into a borax carrier coating under specified conditions, it will render the coating resistant to softening by atmospheric moisture. These metal soaps will be in the form of calcium, aluminum, barium, magnesium or zinc soaps. Suitable soaps are derived from the fatty acids having about 12 to about 18 carbon atoms. It is unimportant whether or not the fatty acids are saturated or unsaturated. One or a mixture of metal soaps are satisfactory for incorporating into the borax.The amount of water-insoluble metal soap that will make the borax carrier coating retard moisture pickup will vary from about 10 to about 30% by weight of the coating. In addition the coating will contain from about 1 to about 5% by weight of organic dispersing or emulsifying agents required to keep the metal soap emulsified in the coating bath. The balance of the carrier coating will be from about 65% to about 89% sodium tetraborate. Various other ingredients may appear in the coating as may be required in the wire coating bath for neutralizing pickling acid, for wire corrosion resistance, for iron sequestering and for modifying the viscosity of the bath.The carrier coating is placed on the rod either by immersion of wire coils in the coating bath or by continuously running the wire through the bath. After immersion in the coating bath the coils of rod are put into a baker where the coils are heated to about 300.degree.-450.degree.F for 2 to about 5 minutes to dry the coating.After the coils are removed from the baker they can be stored for several days without deteriorating due to moisture pick-up from the atmosphere until they are required for drawing.

Abstract:
This invention concerns a novel process for preparing mixed alkali metal-alkaline earth metal soap thickened greases of depressed yield by a one-stop, non-melt process in which the temperature does not exceed the melting point of the alkaline earth metal soap contained in the grease during the entire grease manufacturing cycle. This procedure is especially useful in the preparation of water-resistant greases.
