Abstract:
A self-lubricating solid coating that contains three layers of lubricants is disclosed. The solid lubricant may be prepared from chromium silicide or chromium carbide; disulfide and diselenide of tungsten, molybdenum, niobium, or tantalum; and silver or gold. This material combination provides superior wear and friction reduction over the temperature range applied. In this invention, chromium silicide or chromium carbide is a hard lubricant with a low wear property to protect the substrate metal; disulfide or diselenide is a soft lubricant with a very low coefficient of friction; and silver or gold with their high thermal conductivity are effective in conducting heat especially at high sliding velocities. Both silver and gold have a low friction coefficient with high oxidative stability. The use of this solid lubricant allows engine manufacturers to develop high temperature engine and partially or totally eliminate the use of liquid lubricants in engines, thus reducing the environmental pollution caused by liquid lubricants in various engines.
Abstract:
A dry toner composition for electrophotography includes a binder resin, a coloring agent and a mica-group mineral. The mica-group mineral provides the toner composition with lubricity and better flow capabilities. The mica-group mineral is wet-ground and may be coated with calcium stearate to reduce static electricity generated during operation of the printer, copier, or facsimile machine. The mica-group mineral and calcium stearate blend comprises ninety percent by weight or more of the mica-group mineral and ten percent by weight or less of the calcium stearate. The mica-group mineral or the mica-group mineral coated with calcium stearate makes up about zero-point-one to around fifteen percent by weight of the toner composition. The lubricant and flow agent formed by the mica-group mineral with or without the calcium stearate may be mixed into conventional dry toner as a post-additive. A mica-group mineral would be wet-ground to a very small particle size -for use in toners requiring smaller particle size and lower melting points for high speed printing operations.
Abstract:
A coating and bonding composition is disclosed. The composition includes suspending, bonding and thinning agents, and a metallic flake. The composition may be used with an environmentally friendly lubricating composition to form an environmentally friendly lubricating system for protecting threaded connections from galling or other damage. That system may be used in a method for protecting threaded connections that includes the steps of: coating the threads, prior to make-up, with the coating and bonding composition and then coating them with the environmentally friendly lubricating composition, after the coated threads have dried.
Abstract:
A low pressure die casting powdery mold releasing agent according to this invention consists of a granulated or powdery mixture of a lubricant, an organic polymer and a metal soap; wherein the lubricant is coated with the organic polymer or the metal soap. Therefore, the mold releasing agent allows productions of castings of high quality, in a squeeze casting work, with good workability and without worsening environmental situations.
Abstract:
A composite, multilayer thin film solid lubricant structure having multiple thin film layers of solid lubricant interleaved by thin film interlayers which interrupt propagation of growth defects in the deposition process.
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.
Abstract:
An aqueous lubrication treatment liquid for a cold plastic working of a metallic material comprises 50 to 400 g/l of a solid lubricant, for example, MoS.sub.2, 1 to 40 g/l of a surfactant, 10 ppm to 5000 ppm, in terms of colloidal titanium compound, water, and optionally, 5 to 150 g/l of a binder and 4 to 160 g/l of a metallic soap. This liquid exhibits a strong bonding to the metallic material and an excellent lubricating property, and prevents rusting of the metallic material.
Abstract:
A self-lubricating, friction and wear reducing composite material for use over a wide temperature spectrum from cryogenic temperature to about 900.degree. C. in a chemically reactive environment comprising silver, barium fluoride/calcium fluoride eutectic, and metal bonded chromium carbide.
Abstract:
Agent for the pickling of and as an antioxidant for workpieces made of iron and steel in the case of when they are subjected to non-cutting, hot transformation. The agent is used in dry form. The agent contains: (a) 20 to 80 percent by weight of a pickling-effective compound, such as, sodium metaborate; (b) 1 to 80 percent by weight of a component, such as, graphite; and (c) zero to 79 percent by weight of at least one substance selected from group (d), (e) and/or (f). Zero to 35 percent by weight of group (d), such as, coke, can be used as substance (c) and, for example, act as antioxidants. Zero to 50 percent by weight of group (e), such as, sodium chloride, can be used as substance (c), and control the physical characteristics. Zero to 5 percent by weight of group (f), such as, ammonium chloride, can be used as substance (c) and, for example, act on the reduction of the oxides of group (a).
Abstract:
A plain bearing of the trimetal type wherein the antifriction layer is of an alloy with a Pb-Sn-Cu base, having a copper content from 2 to 6% by weight, a tin content from 8 to 13% by weight and the remainder being lead, the said alloy being added with an amount of carbon fibers, the alloy and carbon fibers being electrochemically deposited. The carbon fibers exhibit a random arrangement within the metal matrix and the fiber tips emerging from the alloy are embedded in the adjoining layer.
