Abstract:
Provided are microalgal compositions and methods for their use. The microalgal compositions include lubricants that find use in industrial and other applications.
Abstract:
Methods and systems in which a shapable mass, which is processed according to the method or in the system, has a lubricant applied thereto. As it is processed in the system, the shapable mass having the lubricant applied thereto is used to transfer lubricant to a part or parts of the system.
Abstract:
An industrial lubricant composition including an oil base selected from the group consisting of vegetable oil, Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, Group V and combinations thereof and a phosphorus-based non-chlorine additive. The industrial lubricant also includes at least one intercalation compound of a metal chalcogenide, a carbon containing compound and a boron containing compound, wherein the intercalation compound may have a geometry that is a platelet shaped geometry, a spherical shaped geometry, a multi-layered fullerene-like geometry, a tubular-like geometry or a combination thereof.
Abstract:
The pipe end correction method for correcting an inner diameter of pipe end of a seamless pipe made of a high Cr stainless steel containing 8 to 35 mass % Cr, and 0.1 to 10 mass % Ni includes a pipe end correction step following hot tube-making and heat treatment, that forces a plug into the inside of pipe end portion for inner diameter correction so as to expand the pipe end portion while oxide scale, which is generated during tube-making or heat treatment, remains accumulated on an inner surface of the pipe end portion. A lubricant film forming step, prior to the pipe end correction step, applies lubricant at least either on the inner surface of the pipe end portion of the seamless pipe or on a surface of the plug. Seizure flaws can be prevented on the inner surface of the pipe end portion of the high Cr stainless steel.
Abstract:
Methods for treatment shaped bodies are described herein. The methods generally include contacting at least one shaped body with an aqueous acidic composition to form a conversion layer on a surface of the at least one shaped body, wherein the surface includes iron or steel and a carbon content in a range of 0 to 2.06 wt. % and a chrome content in a range of 0 to
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a lubricating composition for forging in the form of a powder or a compacted powder including: one or more dicarboxylic acid(s) chosen among adipic acid, phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, sebacic acid, succinic acid and suberic acid; and one or more base(s) chosen among sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate, the dicarboxylic acid(s)/base(s) molar ratio ranging between 0.8 and 1.2.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel additive for oil-based lubricants having improved extreme-pressure properties, to a method for producing said novel additive, to oil-based lubricants containing said novel additive and to uses of said novel additive.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a steel cord for rubber reinforcement. In the steel cord of the present invention, cobalt is contained by 0.001 ppm to 0.1 ppm within a 4 nm top-surface of the brass-plated steel wire. A method of manufacturing the steel cord includes: providing a brass-plated steel wire; mixing a cobalt compound in a wet lubricant filled in a wet drawing bath provided with a plurality of drawing dies between one pair of multi-stage drawing cones such that the concentration of the cobalt compound becomes 0.1 ppm to 100 ppm; and causing the cobalt to be contained by 0.001 ppm to 0.1 ppm within a 4 nm top-surface of the brass-plated steel wire after the brass-plated steel wire passes through a final die by causing the cobalt to be attached to a surface of the brass-plated steel wire and alloyed with a brass layer while the brass-plated steel wire is passing through the drawing cones and the drawing dies to be subjected to multi-stage drawing.
Abstract:
Forge lubrication processes are disclosed. A solid lubricant sheet is placed between a workpiece and a die in a forging apparatus. Force is applied to the workpiece with the die to plastically deform the workpiece. The solid lubricant sheet decreases the shear friction factor for the forging system and reduces the incidence of die-locking.
Abstract:
Lubricating compositions for use in the casting of steel, in particular in continuous casting processes are provided. Methods for making and using such compositions are also provided.
