Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of stabilizing non-halogenated 3-isothiazolones in aggressive systems with pH above 8.5. The invention also discloses compositions with pH above 8.5, containing non-halogenated 3-isothiazolones and an effective stabilizing amount of a iodine-containing stabilizer.
Abstract:
Waterborne lubricants comprising: (A) water-soluble inorganic salt; (B) homogeneously dispersed solid lubricant; (C) at least one homogeneously emulsified substance selected from mineral oils, animal and plant oils and fats, and synthetic oils; (D) surfactant; and (E) water, in which the weight ratio (B)/(A) is from 0.05:1 to 2:1 and the weight ratio {C/(A + B)} is from 0.05:1 to 1:1, provide a one-step, highly lubricating waterborne lubricant for use in the cold plastic working of metals. This waterborne lubricant can replace the conversion coating treatment (phosphate, oxalate, etc.) + reactive soap treatment combined lubrication system now in general use and is free of the environmental issues associated with the combined lubrication system, provides for facile coating removal, and is not subject to the decline in seizure resistance caused by nonuniform add-on when large numbers of workpieces are treated together by immersion.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a lubricating composition, in particular for swaging, consisting of a suspension in water of a mixture of phospholipids and an organic or mineral basic compound. For example, the composition contains 80 wt.% water, 10 wt.% phospholipids brought in the form of soja bean lecithin, and 10 wt.% of calcium hydroxide or stearylamine as basic compound. Among other advantages the lubricant can be eliminated by means of an aqueous solvent, and is easily biodegradable.
Abstract:
A mould lubricant comprises a casting lubricant such as caster oil and a gaseous oxidation inhibiting agent such as sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). The mould lubricant can be used to lubricate a mould in the direct chill casting of a reactive metal such as magnesium.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hydraulic fluid composition having a high boiling point, in particular a high equilibrium reflux boiling point and a low viscosity. The composition contains, as additive, at least one ether amine having a molecular weight between 120 and 300 and having the following formula : in which R3 is linear or branched radical having at least one ether functional group and no alcohol functional group, R is a methyl radical or a hydrogen atom, p is an integer from 1 to 3 and q is an integer from 0 to 2.
Abstract:
A waterborne lubricant for the cold plastic working of metals that contains alkali metal salts of dimer(s) and/or trimer(s) of unsaturated fatty acids with from 10 to 24 carbon atoms per molecule has a lubrication performance at least as good as that of prior lubricants, even at generally lower lubricating film weights, has a long bath life, and generates little dust during cold plastic working operations. Even as little as 5 % of these salts of dimer(s) and/or trimer(s) of unsaturated fatty acids, when mixed with conventional alkali metal salts of saturated fatty acids with from 10-24 carbon atoms per molecule, can provide these benefits.

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 rosin. 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:
Contact of acid or alkaline cleaned aluminum surfaces, particularly cans, with a water based composition containing a combination of (i) alkoxylated phosphate esters, (ii) ions of aluminum, zirconium, iron, tin, and/or cerium, (iii) a metal etching component, and (iv) a combination of alkoxylated alcohol and alkoxylated alkyl phenol emulsifiers, gives the surface after drying lowered surface friction without loss of high quality printability and lacquer adhesion and removes any brown spotting on the cans that may have developed during the cleaning or post-cleaning rinses. The cans after treatment are substantially free from any water breaks when rinsed with water. The foaming resistance and storage stability of the water based composition as described above, and of other similar surface friction reducing treatments for aluminum containers, may be advantageously increased by adding a biocidal agent, preferably hydrogen peroxide, and a combination of liquid paraffin, solid wax, and a high molecular weight fatty acid derivative(s) as antifoam agent.
Abstract:
A stainless steel wire is plated with nickel (Ni) to a thickness of from not less than 1 µm to not more than 5 µm. An inorganic salt coat film mainly composed of at least one of potassium sulfate and borax (borate) and free from fluorine (F) or chlorine (Cl) is then deposited on the nickel (Ni) plate 2 as the substrate. The steel wire is then drawn to a reduction of area of not less than 60% to adjust the surface roughness thereof to a range of from 0.80 to 12.5 µmRz, preferably from 1.0 to 10.0 µmRz.
