Abstract:
Processes for the manufacture of metal complex grease compositions are provided. In one embodiment, the process comprises: preparing a slurry comprising a base oil, water, a metal base and a complexing agent, wherein the weight ratio of water:solid in the slurry is in the range of from 0.15:1 to 1.5:1; applying shear to the slurry; adding a C10-C24 saturated or unsaturated fatty acid or derivative thereof to effect a saponification reaction; removing water from the saponified product; heating the saponified product at a temperature in the range of from 190 to 230° C.; and subsequently cooling the product to a temperature in the range of from 200 to 150° C. to form the metal complex grease composition.
Abstract:
An article including a first release liner with a first release surface, a second release liner with a second release surface, and a layer of a thermally conductive grease between the first and the second release surfaces. The thermally conductive grease includes a mixture of at least three distributions of thermally conductive particles, each of the at least three distributions of thermally conductive particles having an average (D50) particle size which differs from the other distributions by at least a factor of 5.
Abstract:
A grease composition using lubricating base oil that is biodegradable by microorganisms in nature and has an affinity to the human body is provided. More particularly, a distillation residue secondarily generated in production of biodiesel from vegetable oil (soybean oil and canola oil) is used as the lubricating base oil.The grease composition is produced by adding 1 to 20 wt % of additives to 100 to 95 wt % of distillation residues, which is generated in production of biodiesel, and 1 to 30 wt % of thickeners.
Abstract:
Elastic solids having reversible stress-induced fluidity are prepared, e.g., by combining liquid formulations with a crystalline mixed metal hydroxide conforming substantially to the formula Li.sub.m D.sub.d T(OH).sub.(m+2d+3+n.multidot.a) (A.sup.n).sub.a .multidot.xH.sub.2 O where m is amount of Li, d is amount of divalent metal D, T is a trivalent metal, A represents at least one anion or negative-valence radical of valence n and a is the amount of A, and xH.sub.2 O represents excess waters of hydration, if any. These make useful coatings. The instantly reversible fluidization of these unique elastic solids may be expressed as: .sigma.=k.sub..alpha. .epsilon. when .epsilon.

Abstract:
A heat-dissipating grease composition which comprises 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane and 100 to 900 parts by weight of an inorganic powder having high thermal conductivity and dispersed in the organopolysiloxane. The organopolysiloxane consists essentially of (1) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane having a viscosity of 50 to 500,000 centistokes at 25.degree. C. and (2) 1 to 300 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane which consists essentially of R.sup.1.sub.3 SiO.sub.1/2 units and SiO.sub.2 units, wherein each R.sup.1 is a group selected from an alkyl group, an alkenyl group and an aryl group. The molar ratio between the R.sup.1.sub.3 SiO.sub.1/2 units and the SiO.sub.2 units is in the range of 0.5:1 to 2:1.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to lubricating grease compositions comprising (a) at least one high-viscosity fluorinated oil having a viscosity of 500 to 1500 mm2/s, (b) boron nitride and (c) a binder selected from bentonite, alkali metal phosphates, aluminum phosphates, alkali metal silicates, alkaline earth metal silicates, aluminum silicates, alkaline earth metal carbonates, calcium borate, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, aluminum oxide and mixtures thereof. The lubricating grease compositions find use especially in the high-temperature sector, for example for the lubrication of oven pullout rails.
