Abstract:
Iron phosphate conversion coatings that are well adapted to serve as carriers for metal cold working lubricants, particularly such lubricants that contain polyoxyethylene adducts of long chain primary alcohols as a major lubricating component, can be formed on ferriferous surfaces within practical time such as 5 to 10 minutes by contact with an aqueous solution of almost neutralized phosphoric acid that has sufficient Free Acid and/or Total Acid content to form a heavier phosphate conversion coating than do conventional iron phosphating compositions. The phosphate conversion coating forming aqueous liquid composition advantageously also contains an accelerator component such as chlorate or hydroxylamine.
Abstract:
A stearate free solid lubricant for cold working of metals contains approximately equal amounts of an alkene-acrylate ionomer and an alkoxylated alcohol in which the alcohol moiety has from 18-60 carbon atoms and the alkoxylate block has about the same number of carbon atoms. This lubricant can be conveniently applied from aqueous solution/suspension and works effectively even when the underlying steel surface has no conversion coating, which is usually required with stearate lubricants for best results.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition including ethoxylated long chain primary alcohols and, preferably, boron compounds but excluding most other previously used organic lubricant materials gives superior results in tube pointing operations, especially with thick walled tubes, and is also useful for drawing operations, either subsequent to pointing or independently of pointing, where very high quality surface finishes are desired.
Abstract:
Problems of extensive foaming and/or of sticky deposits on process equipment that often arise when metal soaps from metal articles that have been given a metal soap containing surface to aid in drawing are removed with aqueous alkaline cleaners can be avoided by including in the cleaners used anions such as calcium and magnesium that are capable of precipitating the anions of the metal soaps. The cleaners advantageously also contain chelants, a mixture of nonionic and anionic surfactants, and phosphorus containing anions. Anions from the metal soaps are eventually precipitated from the cleaners used as non-sticky sludge that can be easily separated from the cleaners.

Date Jun. 4, 1998Aqueous liquid treatment compositions comprising as active ingredients boric acid and condensed phosphate ions can form iron phosphate containing conversion coatings on ferriferous substrates at rates of at least 0.3 g/m2/min. The coatings are useful as cold working lubricants, either as such or after overcoating with a supplemental lubricant.
Abstract:
A highly effective solid cold working lubricant may be deposited on a metal surface from an aqueous solution/dispersion that contains ethoxylated alcoho ls with at least 18 carbon atoms per alcohol and lithium, calcium, and/or sodiu m salts of fatty acids. Optional preferred ingredients include inorganic boron containing compounds, ethoxylated castor oil, ionomers, and a corrosion inhibitor that includes azoles. No prior conversion coating, such as is generally used under conventional organic soap lubricants, is needed with th is type of solid film.
