Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a sliding member capable of rapidly wrapping a mating member, and reducing the surface roughness of the mating member after wrapping. The present invention relates to a sliding member for sliding with a mating member subjected to hardening treatment, the sliding member including a coating layer containing a binder resin, molybdenum disulfide, and hard substance particles in massive form.
Abstract:
The subject matter of the invention is a tubular element intended for drilling and/or operating hydrocarbon wells having one end (1; 2) comprising at least one threaded area (3; 4), characterised in that the end (1; 2) is at least partially coated with a dry film (12), comprising a matrix (13) including a mixture of at least one alkali polysilicate and at least one semi-crystalline thermoplastic organic polymer. The invention also relates to a method for producing a dry film (12), comprising a matrix (13) including a mixture of at least one alkali polysilicate and at least one semi-crystalline thermoplastic organic polymer, on such a tubular element intended for drilling and/or operating hydrocarbon wells.
Abstract:
An image bearing member protecting agent including: a hydrophobic organic compound (A); an inorganic lubricant (B); and inorganic fine particles (C), wherein each of the inorganic fine particles (C) has a specific surface area of 2.0 m 2 /g to 6.5 m 2 /g.
Abstract:
A solid stick composition for use on steel surfaces that are in sliding or rolling-sliding contact. The solid stick composition comprises a vinyl ester resin, for example, from about 20 to about 80 weight percent vinyl ester resin, a solid lubricant, for example from about 0 to about 80 weight percent lubricant, and optionally a friction modifier, for example from about 0 to about 40% weight percent friction modifier, or a combination of a solid lubricant and a friction modifier. The solid stick comprises at least one of the lubricant or the friction modifier. A method of controlling friction between a metal surface and a second metal surface by applying the solid stick composition to one or more than one of the metal surfaces is also disclosed as well as a method of reducing lateral force in a rail system comprising applying the solid stick composition onto a wheel or rail surface.
Abstract:
A threaded joint for steel pipes having excellent galling resistance, rust preventing properties, and airtightness without using a compound grease comprises a pin and a box each having a threaded portion and an unthreaded metal-to-metal contact portion serving as contact surfaces. The contact surfaces of at least one of the pin and the box are coated with a multi-layered structure comprising, from the bottom, a first layer formed from a first metal or alloy, a second layer formed from a second metal or alloy which is softer than the first metal or alloy, and an uppermost layer of a solid lubricating coating comprising a lubricating powder in an organic or inorganic binder.
