There is provided a sliding member coating composition for forming a coating on the surface of a sliding member, which contains a binder resin, abrasion inhibiting members, and a solid lubricant as needed. The shape of the abrasion inhibiting members is a panel shape having an aspect ratio of 5 to 100 expressed by average particle diameter/average particle thickness, and has an average particle diameter of 15.0 μm or smaller and a Moh's hardness of 6 or higher. The content of the solid lubricant can be set to 0 to 15 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the binder resin, and the content of the abrasion inhibiting members to 1 to 100 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the binder resin. The solid lubricant may not be blended. The abrasion inhibiting members are preferably aluminas. According to the sliding member coating composition in the present invention, even when being exposed to severe frictional conditions for a long time, preferable lubricity can be guaranteed.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a refrigeration circuit-forming member which has a metal surface and is used for a refrigeration circuit in which HFO-1234yf that is a refrigerant configured of molecules having a double bond is used. The metal surface, which comes into contact with the HFO-1234yf, is covered with a coating layer that is not reactive with the HFO-1234yf within the range of temperature at which the HFO-1234yf is used. The coating layer is formed of any of a coating film that is firmly fixed to the metal surface, a coating layer that is formed by adhesion of a specific component added into the lubricant oil, and a coating layer that is formed by modification of the metal surface layer itself that forms the metal surface. Consequently, the chemical instability that is caused when the refrigerant HFO-1234yf comes into contact with the metal can be eliminated.

The present invention provides a friction control composition comprising a binder a rheological control agent, and optionally a lubricant. The liquid friction control composition may also comprise other components a wetting agent, a consistency modifier, and a preservative. The liquid friction control compositions may be used to modify the interfacial friction characteristics in sliding and rolling-sliding contact such as steel wheel-rail systems including mass transit and freight systems. A method of reducing lateral force, reducing energy consumption, or controlling friction between a metal surface and a second metal surface by applying the composition to metal surface, for example a top of rail or wheel, is also provided. The composition may be sprayed onto the rail surface.

The invention relates to a method for preparing metal workpieces for cold forming by first applying a phosphate layer and then applying a lubricant layer which has a major content in organic polymer material. The phosphate layer is formed by an aqueous acidic phosphating solution having a major content in calcium, magnesium or manganese and phosphate. The lubricant layer is formed by contacting the phosphated surface with an aqueous lubricant composition which has a content in organic polymer material based on ionomer and optionally also non-ionomer the organic polymer material used predominantly being monomers, oligomers, co-oligomers, polymers or copolymers based on ionomer, acrylic acid/methacrylic acid, epoxide, ethylene, polyamide, propylene, styrene, urethane, the ester or salt thereof. The invention also relates to the corresponding lubricant composition, to the lubricant layer produced thereof and to its use.
