Abstract: A method for treating the phosphate sludge waste from phosphate conversion baths used in the metal forming and metal working industry is described whereby the phosphate sludge is completely converted into a lubricant additive which can be used in lubricant formulations for the metal forming and metal working industry as well as general purpose lubricants. By operation of this process, waste treatment and waste disposal problems associated with the phosphate sludge are essentially eliminated. Various dry-soap lubricant formulations, warm forming lubricant formulations, non-reactive lubricant formulations, and metal precoat formulations containing the recovered or recycled phosphate sludge additive are described. The lime normally contained in many of these lubricant formulations can be significantly reduced or essentially eliminated by using the recovered phosphate sludge additive of this invention, thereby resulting in improved lubricant formulations.

Abstract: A water washable thermally conductive grease useful for thermal coupling of electronic chips and heat sinks in electronic modules comprises a hydrophilic alkylene oxide modified silicone carrier, and up to 90 weight percent of a microparticulate thermally conductive filler. In a preferred embodiment, the thixotropic dielectric composition further comprises an antioxidant and an ionic surfactant to promote wetting/dispersion of the microparticulate filler. The thermally conductive grease is non-corrosive, resistant to shear induced phase destabilization and capable of being washed from module surfaces with aqueous solutions. Substitution of the present hydrophilic based greases for art-recognized solvent washable greases eliminates use of non-aqueous solvents in electronic module processing/reprocessing operations.

Abstract: A flocculant for water treatment containing a highly polymerized silicic acid solution having a high concentration of SiO.sub.2 and an extremely low concentration of alkali metal substance, and a method for producing such flocculant. The silicic acid solution is prepared by treating an aqueous solution of an alkali metal silicate such as water glass to remove alkali metal and allowing the solution to liquefy after once gelling. The flocculant may further contain a water soluble metal salt such as ferric chloride or ferric nitrate.

Abstract: Bar soap for personal use having a structural center selected from an open celled sponge material, or woven or non-woven organic filamentary material, which is preferably fully soap-impregnated. The sponge core is revealed after the soap bar is reduced to a sliver, providing support, preventing breakage and making washing more effective and reducing wastage. Water soluble oxycellulose polymers may be used. The sponge may be configured in the form of a character or animal shape for children. The core may extend to at least one surface and can be configured to provide a hanger support. The core permits dipping to build up the bar, and layered soap of different compositions or colors is disclosed.
