Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards an aqueous lubricant composition comprising hyaluronic acid, organic acid, salts and water, and has a pH of between 5.5 and 7.0 and an osmolality between about 150 and 1,500 mOsm/kg. The lubricant surprisingly has long-lasting lubricity and low osmolality as compared to conventional lubricants on the market.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a polymeric antimicrobial composition, a method of producing the same and the uses thereof. The ionomer composition comprises an amine functional polymer compound reacted with silver halide, optionally together with a stabilizing component, such as an organic substance carrying a sulfonamide functional group. The ionomer composition can be obtained by reacting together (i) at least one polyamine and silver halide and optionally at least one organic stabilizer substance or; (ii) at least one polyamine, at least one non-halide silver salt or silver complex, hydrogen halide and/or alkaline metal halide salt and optionally at least one organic stabilizer substance. The present ionomer composition is suitable for use as an antimicrobial coating, antimicrobial finish, antimicrobial additive and as antimicrobial component for formation of new antimicrobial materials.
Abstract:
Additive packages including multifunctional additive molecules are disclosed, including, for example, organic medium intercalated with lubricant nanoparticles. The additive package may be greaseless or may he added to materials such as base oils or greases, greaseless materials, or anti-corrosives, for example. The additive package added to materials may form a coating or lubricant that may be added to a surface of an object.
Abstract:
A composition that includes solid lubricant nanoparticles and an organic medium is disclosed. Also disclosed are nanoparticles that include layered materials. A method of producing a nanoparticle by milling layered materials is provided. Also disclosed is a method of making a lubricant, the method including milling layered materials to form nanoparticles and incorporating the nanoparticles into a base to form a lubricant.
Abstract:
Provide is an anti-burn engine oil, which comprises a base oil, and copper powder or ceramic powder having the particle diameter of 110 nm-300 nm and the aspect ratio of no greater than 3:1, wherein the amount of copper powder or ceramic powder is 25 g-100 g in per liter the base oil. The copper powder or ceramic powder contained in the engine oil can increase the potential energy of the towed particles in the cylinder and form a variety of complex movements under the relative movement of friction pair so as to not only greatly reduce the dry friction, but also have a good lubricating property and avoid the engine oil burning. At the same time, particles in motion possess the specialty of decreasing the temperature of the oil film, increasing the anti-oxidation ability of the engine oil, prolong the service life of the engine oil, and enhance the maintenance of the engine.
Abstract:
Water-based cutting fluids for use with diamond wiresaws that are used for cutting or otherwise treating hard brittle materials, e.g., silicon ingots, comprise: A. Water-soluble, polymeric dispersing agent, typically a polycarboxylate; B. Optionally wetting agent; C. Optionally defoamer; B. Optionally corrosion inhibitor; E. Optionally chelant; F. Optionally biocide; and G. Water. Typically water comprises at least 50 weight percent of the fluid, and the polycarboxylate is grafted with a polyalkylene glycol, e.g., polyethylene glycol.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to additives for use in lubricant compositions to processes for producing the additives, and to the use of the additives in lubricants and in systems that are lubricated. More specifically, the additive includes a capped particle comprising: (i) one or more inorganic core particles; and (ii) one or more multi-block copolymers attached to the inorganic particles. The multi-block copolymer includes at least one nonpolar polymer block interposed between two polar polymer blocks. One polar polymer block is attached to the core particle, and at least a portion of the another polar polymer block is not directly attached to, the core particle. When used in a lubricant to lubricate a metallic surface of a workpiece, the capped particle preferably adheres to the metallic surface of the workpiece.
Abstract:
A method for in-situ solid lubrication of sliding electrical contacts includes the steps of providing a device having a movable electrically conductive first member and an electrically conductive second member, the first and second member being in electrical contact at a slideable electrical contact, and automatically applying an electrically conductive solid lubricant transfer film to the slideable electrical contact during operation of the device. The applying step can be a deposition of the electrically conductive solid lubricant transfer film on a surface of the first member, wherein the electrically conductive solid lubricant transfer film is carried by movement of the first member to the electrical contact.
