Abstract:
Novel compositions useful as fluid gelling agents, especially for use in subterranean applications such as drilling fluids, are prepared by reacting an aqueous dispersion of a clay, such as bentonite, with an aqueous gel of a monodispersed mixed metal layered hydroxide of the formula Li.sub.m D.sub.d T(OH).sub.(m+2d+3+na) A.sup.n.sub.a.H.sub.2 O, where x is zero or more representing excess water of hydration, where D is a divalent metal, such as Mg, T is a trivalent metal, such as Al, and A represents other monovalent or polyvalent anions, the formula being described in detail in the disclosure.

Abstract:
The present invention provides grease a compositions having excellent properties which comprises base oil consisting of specified amounts of a chain hydrocarbon oligomer and the addition polymerization oligomer of alkylene oxide and polyvalent alcohol and the defined amounts of specific additives, such as lithium salt of higher fatty acid, quaternary ammonium salt-containing clay mineral, polar solvents and the like. The grease composition can be applied effectively, for example, on the plastic parts of automobiles, plastic parts of sound apparatus, sliding contact switches and the like.
Abstract:
A composite material comprising a resin other than polyamide resin and a layered silicate dispersed therein, said layered silicate having a layer thickness of 7 to 12 .ANG. and an interlayer distance of 30 .ANG. or above. Owing to the layered silicate uniformly dispersed in the resin matrix, the composite material is superior in mechanical characteristics and heat resistance. It also has good water resistance and chemical resistance.
