Abstract:
A machining oil composition comprises at least two ingredients, that is a lubricating base oil and a salt selected from sulfonates of alkali metals and the like. The composition may further comprise a metal composition selected from thiophosphates and the like, and/or sulfur-based extreme pressure agents. Since no chlorine-based extreme pressure agent is contained, little problem on the environmental pollution or the damage of incinerators is involved. The composition exhibits good machining or cutting performance.

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 lubricant and surface conditioner for formed metal surfaces, particularly beverage containers, reduces the coefficient of static friction of said metal surfaces and enables drying said metal surfaces at a lower temperature. An aqueous composition for forming the conditioner by contact with metal surfaces includes a water-soluble organic material selected from a phosphate ester, alcohol, fatty acid including mono-, di-, tri-, and polyacids; fatty acid derivatives such as salts, hydroxy acids, amides, esters, ethers and derivatives thereof; and mixtures thereof and at least one of the elements selected from zirconium, titanium, cerium, aluminum, iron, tin, vanadium, tantalum, niobium, molybdenum, tungsten, and hafnium in metallic or ionic form. In order to avoid formation of sludge in the aqueous lubricant and surface conditioner forming composition, the composition should contain as little as possible of materials containing phenanthrene rings, such as conventional surfactants made by ethoxylating rosin. In order to assure the minimization of such surfactants in the aqueous lubricant and surface conditioner forming composition, surfactants containing phenanthrene rings should also be avoided or minimized in earlier cleaning stages.
Abstract:
A a process for making a lubricious composition useful for preventing seizing of threaded fasteners in application to the threaded surface(s) thereof, comprising: (a) forming metal wire by drawing of metal source material through a wire drawing die; (b) lubricating the wire drawing die with an oil lubricant in forming the metal wire, to produce as a by-product thereof a metal flake/oil mixture; (c) separating the metal flake/oil mixture to recover a metal flake/oil suspension; and (d) formulating the metal flake/oil suspension in a metal flake-containing lubricant composition. The invention in another aspect relates to a product of such process. In a specific compositional aspect, the invention relates to a composition comprising an oil-based vehicle, 15%-35% by weight particulate metal (e.g., microscopic flake aluminum), based on the total weight of the composition, and 10%-30% by weight graphite, based on the total weight of the composition.
Abstract:
A lubricant and surface conditioner for formed metal surfaces, particularly aluminum and tin beverage containers, reduces the coefficient of static friction of said metal surfaces and enables drying said metal surfaces at a lower temperature. The conditioner includes a water-soluble organic material selected from amine oxides and quaternary ammonium salts, fluozirconate, fluohafnate, or fluotitanate ion, and preferably also phosphate and nitrate ions. Good resistance to damaging the friction reducing effect by overheating and to staining of the domes of treated containers during pasteurization can be achieved.
Abstract:
A graphite-free lubricating oil which comprises a base oil having dispersed therein 10 to 40% by weight of a carbohydrate and/or a derivative thereof whose particle size ranges from 10 to 150 .mu.m, 2 to 20% by weight of a film-boosting agent and 0.1 to 20% by weight of a dispersant. Moreover, the lubricating oil is free of black-colored substances such as graphite. Therefore, the oil permits the improvement of working surroundings and exhibits excellent properties such as formability through forging almost comparable to or even greater than that of the commercially available graphite-in-oil type lubricating oils. The lubricating oil can be used instead of the graphite-containing lubricating oils for warm forging, hot forging, rolling, tube-manufacturing, drawing and extrusion in place of the graphite-containing lubricating oils and ensures the improvement in the working surroundings and excellent lubricity.

Abstract:
Provided are methods for fabricating solid lubricant coatings capable of operating over a temperature range of at least 0.degree. to 600.degree. C. One embodiment comprises simultaneously applying a first solid lubricant and a second solid lubricant to a bearing surface, wherein the first solid lubricant has a normal operating temperature range of about -169.degree. to +350.degree. C. and the second solid lubricant has a normal operating temperature range of about 350.degree. to 700.degree. C. A second embodiment comprises applying multiple alternating layers of a first solid lubricant and a second solid lubricant to a bearing surface. A third embodiment comprises applying multiple alternating layers of (1) a first solid lubricant overlaid with a diffusion barrier and (2) a second solid lubricant overlaid with a diffusion barrier to a bearing surface. A fourth embodiment comprises applying at least one matrix layer consisting essentially of a first solid lubricant and a second solid lubricant dispersed in a diffusion barrier matrix to a bearing surface. The first and second solid lubricants in these embodiments are as described above. The diffusion barrier is a metal carbide, metal nitride or the like. The lubricant films prepared according to the invention are able to adapt to environmental changes such as temperature, atmosphere, pressure, radiation levels and the like. The adaptive nature of these lubricant films occurs through changes in crystal structure and reaction between the first and second solid lubricants, both with each other and with the atmosphere.
Abstract:
A rheologically controlled glass lubricant for hot metal working comprises a glass powder, a binder, a rheological agent, and a wetting and viscosity modifier. These materials may be dispersed in a carrier. The lubricant is made by mixing the constituent elements, milling the mixture, and stabilizing the milled mixture. The lubricant can be used in a forging operation by coating a metal part with the lubricant, heating the coated part, placing the coated heated part in a forge, and rapidly applying sufficient pressure to deform the coated metal part into a desired shape.
