Abstract:
An aqueous hydraulic fluid comprising as, active ingredients, 5-30% by weight of alkylpolyglycoside, 0-20% by weight of surfactant additives, and 0-10% by weight of nonsurfactant additives; and water to 100% by weight; the proportion of active ingredients in the fluid being at most 40% by weight; provides a medium for energy transfer having adequate viscosity and good lubricating action at low concentrations of active ingredients.
Abstract:
Group 2A metal greases having a dropping point in excess of 650.degree. F. are produced by a manufacturing process in which water is carefully controlled in the process while conversion to grease is occurring. It is necessary to complete the reaction and dehydrate the reaction mixture before finish oils and additives are added in order to obtain a reproducible grease with a high drop point and a low penetration value.
Abstract:
Marked mineral oils containing basic dyes which have at least two, optionally substituted, amino groups and which, on addition of a protogenic acid and, optionally, a metal halide, experience a bathochromic shift of their absorption maximum and an increase in absorbance, and a method of marking mineral oils with basic dyes.
Abstract:
A lubricating composition possessing properties highly suitable for warm and hot forging has an ultrahigh molecular polyethylene powder possessing a molecular weight of not less than 1,000,000 dispersed and contained in a medium of water or oil; has an ultrahigh molecular polyethylene powder possessing a molecular weight of not less than 1,000,000 and an inorganic solid lubricant of a white or light color dispersed and contained in a medium of water or oil; or has an ultrahigh molecular polyethylene powder possessing a molecular weight of not less than 1,000,000 and a polyethylene oxide powder possessing a melting point in the range of 80.degree. to 120.degree. C. dispersed and contained in a medium of water.
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 high performance grease is provided that performs well at extremely cold temperatures and moderately elevated temperatures, as well as under normal operation conditions. The high performance grease comprises: a lithium soap thickener, a synthetic base oil blend of diester and polyalphaolefin, and extreme pressure antiwear additives and inhibitors comprising dithiocarbamates, phosphates, and hydroxides.
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.
