Abstract:
A perfluoropolyether, a composition comprising the perfluoropolyether, a process for producing the perfluoropolyether, and a process for improving the thermostability of grease or lubricant are provided. The perfluoropolyether comprises perfluoroalkyl radical end groups in which the radical has at least 3 carbon atoms per radical and is substantially free of perfluoromethyl and perfluoroethyl end groups. The process for producing the perfluoropolyether can comprise (1) contacting a perfluoro acid halide, a C2- to C4-substituted ethyl epoxide, or a C3null fluoroketone with a metal halide to produce an alkoxide; (2) contacting the alkoxide with either hexafluoropropylene oxide or tetrafluorooxetane to produce a second acid halide; (3) esterifying the second acid halide to an ester; (4) reducing the ester to its corresponding alcohol; (5) converting the alcohol with a base to a salt form; (6) contacting the salt form with a C3 or higher olefin to produce a fluoropolyether; and (7) fluorinating the fluoropolyether. The process for improving the thermostability of a grease or lubricant comprises combining the grease or lubricant with the composition.
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.
Abstract:
A water-based lubricating grease composition includes at least 40 wt % water; a salt-based thickener; a polymer-based thickener; and optionally, an inorganic solid-based thickener. A process for preparing the water-based lubricating grease composition may include blending a suitable amount of water with a salt-based thickener to provide a thickened water-based grease, wherein the salt-based thickener is obtained from contacting a base with a fat; and adding a polymer-based thickener to the thickened water-based grease.
Abstract:
A lubricating grease is provided that comprises 90 to 99.45 percent by mass of perfluoropolyethers (PFPE) and 0.5 to 5 percent by mass of fumed silica.
Abstract:
In a synthetic resin-made thrust sliding bearing, a silicone grease whose base oil is a silicone oil, whose coefficient of kinematic viscosity at 25° C. is not less than 100 cSt and not more than 500,000 cSt, and which contains a thickener so as to set its worked penetration to not less than 200 and not more than 400 is interposed at sliding interfaces between, on the one hand, an upper surface of a lower annular flat plate-shaped portion defining a bottom surface of a lower annular recess and a lower surface of an upper annular flat plate-shaped portion and, on the other hand, an upper surface and a lower surface of a thrust bearing piece which are respectively brought into sliding contact with the upper and the lower surface.
Abstract:
The invention provides a grease composition comprising a base oil consisting of a fluorinated oil and an antirust agent, wherein said antirust agent comprises an aliphatic dibasic acid salt of the formula (1) in an amount of not less than 0.1% by mass and less than 1.0% by mass based on the total mass of the grease composition: (CH2)n(COO)2Mm (1) wherein n is an integer of 1 to 19, M is an alkali or alkaline earth metal, m is 2 when M is an alkali metal and m is 1 when M is an alkaline earth metal, and a bearing wherein the grease is packed. The grease exerts less effects on the environment. It is low in evaporation loss at a high temperature, shows good antirust property and can be suitably used in a ball bearing operated at a high temperature.
Abstract:
A thermally conductive silicone grease composition comprising at least the following components: an organopolysiloxane (A) represented by the following general formula: [wherein R1 designates identical or different univalent hydrocarbon groups; X designates identical or different univalent hydrocarbon groups or alkoxysilyl-containing groups of the following general formula: —R2—SiR1a(OR3)(3-a) (wherein R1 designates the previously mentioned groups; R2 designates oxygen atoms or alkylene groups; R3 designates alkyl groups; and ‘a’ is an integer ranging from 0 to 2); and ‘m’ and ‘n’ are integers equal to or greater than 0, respectively]; a thermally conductive filler (B); and an organopolysiloxane (C) having silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms on both molecular terminals and in the molecular chains; is characterized by excellent resistance to heat and reduced oil bleeding.
Abstract:
A composition made by admixing a major amount of base oils of lubricating viscosity and minor amounts of additives. The additives can include a viscosity modifier, a dispersant, a friction modifier, an anti-oxidant, a suppressant, a tackifier, and thickeners. The dispersant can be a dissolved powered styrene-ethylene/propylene-block copolymer and the thickeners can be fumed silicia. The dispersants and the thickeners are pulverized and dissolved in the composition to provide for inhibition of oil separation during storage.
