By taking such constitution as described above, a surface film is formed on a surface of a raceway of any one of inner and outer rings or a surface of a rolling element of a bearing. Therefore, the rolling bearing in which a grease composition having the constitution is packed can maintain an excellent lubricity for a long period of time even under severe conditions such as a high rotation, a high temperature and a heavy load. Further, the grease composition for the rolling bearing is low in harmfulness to a human body and gives little load to the environment.

    Abstract: Thermally formed thermoplastic articles can be protected from stress cracking in the presence of stress cracking promoting compounds by forming a shaped article comprising a thermoplastic and a liquid hydrocarbon oil composition. We have found that the liquid hydrocarbon oil composition prevents the stress cracking promoting materials from interacting with the polymeric structure of the stressed container to prevent or inhibit stress cracking in such materials. The methods and compositions of the invention are particularly useful in preventing stress cracking in polyethylene terephthalate beverage containers during bottling operations during which the bottle is contacted with aqueous and non-aqueous materials such as cleaners and lubricants that can interact with the polyester to cause stress cracking particularly in the container base.
