Abstract:
A grease for rock bit lubrication and other high temperature bearing applications is provided comprising a high viscosity index polyalphaolefin synthetic base fluid in combination with an alkylated naphthalene base fluid.
Abstract:
A composition is disclosed which comprises an aryl perfluoropolyether, optionally a halogenated oil, and further optionally a thickening agent. The composition can be used as a lubricant itself or as an additive to an oil or grease lubricant and can withstand temperatures higher than 300° C. without decomposition. The halogenated oil can be a perfluoropolyether, a fluorosilicone, a polytrifluorochloroethylene, or combinations of two or more thereof. The thickening agent can be finely divided silica, boron nitride, clay, soap, poly(tetrafluoroethylene), clay, talc, silica, titanium dioxide, polydimethylsiloxane, polyurea, polyurethane, or combinations of two or more thereof.
Abstract:
A lubricating grease is specific for a rock bit for drilling subterranean formations. The rock bit body includes a plurality of journal pins, each having a bearing surface, with a cutter cone mounted on each journal pin and also including a bearing surface. A grease reservoir provides lubricating grease to such bearing surfaces. The grease composition adjacent the bearing surfaces comprises a lubricating base oil, sufficient thickener and additives in the base oil to form a rock bit grease, and an effective amount of polarized graphite.
Abstract:
A lubricant for a run-flat tire system includes a solubilized oil, an oil-miscible or oil-soluble carrier fluid or other non aqueous carrier fluid, a thickener, and a surfactant. The thickening system hereof retains its rheological properties and is not subject to permanent thinning shear. When admixed with optionally, a surfactant and, a lubricity agent, the lubricant exhibits long term viscometric stability (shelf life) and prevents the buildup of heat due to friction in the tire assembly when the tire is in the run-flat condition.
Abstract:
A UV-stable lubricating and/or sealing compound, and method for production thereof. The compound includes a base oil and a powder-form inorganic thickener distributed homogeneously therein. At room temperature, the base oil has a vapor pressure of
Abstract:
A composition that can be used as lubricant for high electric field including spark plug boots is disclosed. The composition comprises, or is produced by combining, a halogenated oil such as a perfluoropolyether, a polytrichlorofluoroethylene, a fluorosilicone, or combinations of two or more thereof; a basic thickener; and optionally an additional thickener in which the basic thickener is a metal hydroxide, a metal salt, an ammonium salt, or combinations of two or more thereof. The optional additional thickener is polytetrafluoroethylene, talc, silica, clay, boron nitride, metal soaps, titanium dioxide, polydimethylsiloxane, polyurea, polyurethane, or combinations of two or more thereof. Also provided is a spark plug boot that comprises the composition applied thereto.
