Abstract:
This invention relates to a process of preparing a high dropping point grease comprising a combination of a selected lithium soap of hydroxy fatty acid and a lithium salt of boric acid wherein said lithium salt of boric acid is formed in situ in the presence of an additive amount of selected water soluble polyhydroxy compound.
Abstract:
Asbestiform crystalline calcium M phosphate, where M is sodium or lithium, having a length to average diameter ratio of at least 5:1, can be prepared by forming a melt of a source of oxygen, calcium, phosphorus and M having a mole ratio of about 15 percent to about 30 percent M.sub.2 O, about 48 percent to about 60 percent P.sub.2 O.sub.5 and about 20 percent to about 37 percent CaO, cooling the melt within the range of about 500.degree. C. to about 750.degree. C. for a sufficient time to permit blocks of calcium M phosphate to form, and fiberizing the blocks into the asbestiform crystals. Such asbestiform crystalline calcium M phosphates are useful to prepare composites of organic polymeric materials.
