Abstract: A grease composition for constant velocity joints which consists essentially of: (a) a base oil; (b) an urea thickener; (c) molybdenum disulfide; and (d) a metal salt or an overbasic metal salt selected from the group consisting of metal salts or overbasic metal salts of oxidized waxes, petroleum sulfonates, alkyl aryl sulfonates, salicylate, and phenates. In addition to (a) to (d), it may further contain, (e) an extreme pressure agent selected from the group consisting of a metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agent and molybdenum dithiophosphate, or (f) molybdenum dithiocarbamate. The grease composition exhibits excellent wear-resistance and pitting-inhibitory effect.

Abstract: A grease composition for constant velocity joints which consists essentially of: (a) a base oil; (b) a diurea compound represented by the following general formula:R.sup.1 NH--CO--NH--p--C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --CH.sub.2 --p--C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --NH--CO--NHR.sup.2(wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.3 may be the same or different and each represents an aryl group or a cyclohexyl group); (c) melamine cyanurate; (d) molybdenum disulfide; and (e) a phosphorus-free sulfur extreme pressure agent, and optionally (f) molybdenum dithiocarbamate.The grease composition exhibits excellent pitting-inhibitory effect and heat resistance.

Abstract: A non-toxic coolant/lubricant is provided which is specifically designed for use in extremely high-load, high-stress machine operations, such as broaching. The composition of this coolant/lubricant includes about 8 to 15 wt % of molybdenum disulfide (MoS.sub.2) powder; about 2 to 6.6 wt % of soap flakes; about 6 to 12 wt % of a liquid polytetrafluoroethylene suspension; and about 66.4 to 84 wt % water. The liquid polytetrafluoroethylene component, which is a water-based suspension of polytetrafluoroethylene, serves as a replacement for toxic CCl.sub.4, which has been used to increase lubricity in coolant/lubricants comprising molybdenum disulfide. The replacement of CCl.sub.4 with liquid polytetrafluoroethylene in the present composition results in a non-toxic but still highly effective coolant/lubricant.

Abstract: A grease composition for constant velocity joints consists essentially of: (a) a base oil; (b) an urea thickener; (c) molybdenum disulfide; (d) a calcium salt or an overbasic calcium salt selected from the group consisting of calcium salts or overbasic calcium salts of oxidized waxes, petroleum sulfonates, alkyl aryl sulfonates, salicylate, and phenates; (e) a metal-free sulfur-phosphorus extreme pressure agent; and (f) molybdenum dithiocarbamate. The grease composition exhibits excellent wear-resistance and pitting-inhibitory effect.

Abstract: The present invention provides a specific hybrid series of transition metal polymer matrix composite sets which create durable friction reducing, wear, and corrosion resistance characteristics which can be used in a powder or liquid form, or, which can be bonded to a desired surface at ambient temperature. The specific components are combinations of polytetrafluoroethylene and molybdenum disulfide, polytetrafluoroethylene and tungsten disulfide, or tungsten disulfide and molybdenum disulfide. This invention brings together the unique properties of organic chemistry (polytetrafluoroethylene) and inorganic chemistry (tungsten disulfide, or molybdenum disulfide). This invention creates a synergistic interaction which enhances the wear resistance properties of polytetrafluoroethylene while simultaneously improving the friction reducing properties of molybdenum disulfide, or tungsten disulfide.
