Abstract:
A high performance sulfated lubricating grease effectively lubricates front-wheel drive joints as well as other equipment. The lubricating grease has excellent extreme pressure properties and antiwear qualities and is economical, effective, and safe. In one preferred form, the sulfated lubricating grease comprises a base oil, a polyurea thickener, a borated oil-separation inhibitor, and a special synergistic, additive package comprising calcium sulfate and calcium carbonate.
Abstract:
Aqueous fluids having a good combination of anti-bacterial properties, stability in hard water, a reduced foaming tendency in soft water and at times a reduced boron content are obtained by the use as additive of a combination of a water-soluble hydroxy di- or tri- carboxylic acid an an excess of an alkanolamine, additive concentrates for incorporation into the aqueous fluids and the aqueous fluids themselves.
Abstract:
A process for applying and bonding a solid lubricant on a substrate whose surface has depressions and pores. The process comprises depositing fine solid lubricant particles on the surface of a substrate to be lubricated in excess of a quantity sufficient to fill essentially all depressions and pores on the substrate surface, and thereafter burnishing the substrate to distribute and bond the lubricant particles on the substrate. Such burnishing of the substrate can be accomplished during its moving contact with another substrate during intended use. Maintenance of lubricity can be accomplished by depositing additional lubricant particles on the substrate and thereafter burnishing, and can be performed while the substrate is in moving contact with another substrate whereby this moving contact performs the burnishing operation.
Abstract:
A water-in-oil emulsion is disclosed which comprises:(A) a continuous oil phase;(B) a discontinuous aqueous phase;(C) a minor emulsifying amount of at least one salt derived from (C) (I) at least one hydrocarbyl-substituted carboxylic acid or anhydride, or ester or amide derivative of said acid or anhydride, the hydrocarbyl substituent of (C) (I) having an average of from about 20 to about 500 carbon atoms, and (C) (II) ammonia, at least one amine, at least one alkali or alkaline earth metal, and/or at least one alkali or alkaline earth metal compound; and(D) a functional amount of at least one water-soluble, oil-insoluble functional additive dissolved in said aqueous phase; with the proviso that when component (D) is ammonium nitrate, component (C) is other than an ester/salt formed by the reaction of polyisobutenyl (Mn=950) succinic anhydride with diethylethanolamine in a ratio of one equivalent of anhydride to one equivalent of amine.
Abstract:
The invention relates to functional fluid concentrates and functional fluids which can be prepared by mixing the concentrates with water. The functional fluid concentrate comprises certain basic zinc salts as cloud point raising additives; a polyether nonionic surfactant; and an associative polyether thickener.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a rim brake for a bicycle or the like and in which the brake lining can be moved via a pivotally mounted actuating member and a support member which carries the brake lining and is movable at right angles to the rim. The actuating member is rotatable about an axis which may coincide with the axis of displacement of the support member and is connected to the support member via a threaded control such that rotation of the actuating member in one direction imparts axial movement of the support member in a direction to apply the brake lining to the rim.
Abstract:
Substantially oil-free aqueous industrial fluids possess superior lubricating and wear preventing characteristics and are useful as hydraulic fluids and metalworking compositions. Fluids of the invention comprise (1) an aqueous liquid and (2) a water-soluble synthetic addition copolymer of (a) an ethylenically unsaturated crosslinking monomer, (b) an ethylenically unsaturated water-soluble monomer, and (c) an ethylenically unsaturated water-insoluble monomer.The industrial fluids exhibit good Newtonian behavior and mechanical stability at high shear.
Abstract:
A process for the production of an aqueous lubricant composition free of oil including water and at least one metallic carboxylate, wherein the anionic is at least one saturated linear organic radical containing at least 12 carbon atoms and the cationic is at least one bivalent or trivalent metal having an electro-chemical oxidation-reduction potential greater than -0.7 volts. The process includes mixing of two mother solutions. The first mother solution is an aqueous solution of at least one alkali metal carboxylate soluble in water wherein the anionic is at least one saturated linear organic radical with at least 12 carbon atoms. The second mother solution is an aqueous solution of at least one metallic salt whereof the anionic is selected from the group consisting of hydroxide, chloride, sulphate, nitrate or phosphate ions and whereof the cationic is at least one bivalent or trivalent metal having an electro-chemical oxidation reduction potential greater than -0.70 volts.
Abstract:
Lubricating oils containing at least one amino phenol of the general formula ##STR1## wherein R is a substantially saturated, hydrocarbon-based group of at least about 10 aliphatic carbon atoms, a, b and c are, for example, each 1, 2 or 3, and Ar is an aromatic moiety such as a benzene nucleus, naphthalene nucleus or linked benzene nuclei, are effective in lubricating two-cycle internal combustion engines. Typically such amino phenols for this use are formed by nitration and reduction of alkyl phenols having an alkyl or alkenyl group of at least about 50 carbon atoms.
