Patent number: 5488192Abstract: In the production of styrene, spontaneous polymerization of styrene monomer causes reduced efficiency and as such it is desirable to prevent the formation of polymer by the addition of inhibitors.

The invention is particularly well-suited for use in hydrodesulfurizer processes wherein the hydrocarbon medium is typically a naphtha, diesel, kerosene, light gas and or residual fuel charge and the charge or medium is subjected to high temperature and pressure treatment in the presence of a catalyst.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 1989Date of Patent: July 17, 1990Assignee: Betz Laboratories, Inc.Inventor: Dwight K. Reid

Patent number: 4820434Abstract: The present invention relates to a lubricating oil composition for traction drive, which consists essentially of:(A) a base oil containing as the main component a saturated hydrocarbon or hydrocarbons having fused ring and/or nonfused ring,(B) an ethylene-.alpha.-olefin copolymer having a number-average molecular weight of 800 to 8,000, and(C) an anti-wear agent.The lubricating oil compositions of the present invention are effectively used in winter and cold districts, since they have a high coefficient of traction and show a limited change in the coefficient of traction at low temperatures.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 1988Date of Patent: April 11, 1989Assignee: Idemitsu Kosan Company LimitedInventors: Hitoshi Hata, Hisashi Machida
