Abstract: Disclosed is a process for reducing the fouling in a heat exchanger in which a hydrocarbon stream is heated or cooled as it passes through the heat exchanger. From 1 to 500 parts per million of an alkylamino alkylphenol is added to the stream to reduce fouling.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for reducing the fouling in a heat exchanger in which a hydrocarbon stream is heated or cooled as it passes through the heat exchanger. From 1 to 500 parts per million of the reaction product of a polyalkylene amine and a hydroxy fatty acid are added to the stream to reduce fouling.

Abstract: Disclosed is an alkali-metal borate containing lubricant which also contains a phosphate, monothiophosphate and dithiophosphate in a critical ratio.

Abstract: An asphalt composition for air-blowing is disclosed comprising asphalt flux, ethylene/vinyl-acetate copolymer, and an air-blowing catalyst. The EVA copolymer is present in a weight percent of from 1 weight percent to 10 weight percent and is comprised of from 35 to 45 vinyl acetate.

Abstract: A method for depositing asphalt from an asphalt emulsion onto an aggregate is disclosed comprising wetting the aggregate with water containing between about 0.01 weight percent and about 1.0 weight percent of coupling agent selected to have charge opposite to the charge of said asphalt emulsion and applying said asphalt emulsion to the wetted aggregate.

Abstract: A continuous process is provided for the production of para alkyl phenols. In the process a mixture of phenol, olefin and strong organic acid, is reacted for a brief period of time. The resulting reaction mixture is quenched, and the para alkyl phenol recovered.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for reducing the fouling in a heat exchanger in which a hydrocarbon stream is heated or cooled as it passes through the heat exchanger. From 1 to 500 parts per million of a dialkyl fatty-acid amide is added to the stream to reduce fouling.

Abstract: Dispersant lubricating oil additives are prepared by reacting oil-soluble dispersant compositions containing at least one primary or secondary amino group with SO.sub.2.

Abstract: Lubricating oils containing oil soluble C.sub.10 -C.sub.30 alkane-1,2-diols have been found to reduce fuel consumption in an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: The electrochemical gasification reaction of carbonaceous materials by anodic oxidation in an aqueous acidic electrolyte to produce oxides of carbon at the anode and metallic elements at the cathode of an electrolysis cell is catalyzed by the use of an iron catalyst.

Abstract: An antioxidant additive combination for lubricating oils is prepared by combining (a) a sulfur containing molybdenum compound prepared by reacting an ammonium tetrathiomolybdate, and a basic nitrogen compound, with (b) an organic sulfur compound.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lubricant composition containing an oil of lubricating viscosity having dispersed therein a particulate hydrated alkali-metal borate and an effective amount of a ester-polyol compound which stabilizes the composition against the adverse effects of water contamination.

Abstract: For the more efficient operation of both spark- and compression-ignited internal combustion engines, and/or control of octane requirement increase in spark-ignited internal combustion engines, at least a portion of the surfaces of the intake manifold exposed to the fuel-air mixture, and/or the combustion chamber exposed to combustion, are fabricated from coated with a material having the combination of thermal conductance and thermal penetration which permits the temperature of said surface during the combustion process to be in excess of the temperature at which deposits form and said surface storing insufficient heat to substantially raise the temperature of the incoming air-fuel charge during the engine intake and compression stroke.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for reducing the fouling in a heat exchanger in which a hydrocarbon stream is heated or cooled as it passes through the heat exchanger. From 1 to 500 parts per million of poly(oxyalkylene) carbamate is added to the stream to reduce fouling.

Abstract: Oil-insoluble metal thiolates prepared by reacting an acyloin, phosphorus pentasulfide and a heavy metal salt are rendered oil soluble when combined with alkenyl or alkyl mono- or bis-succinimides. The complexes are effective as anti-oxidants and anti-wear inhibitors in lubricating oils.

Abstract: An antioxidant additive combination for lubricating oils is prepared by combining (a) a sulfur containing molybdenum compound prepared by reacting an acidic molybdenum compound, a basic nitrogen compound, and carbon disulfide, with (b) an organic sulfur compound.

Abstract: Lubricating oils containing sulfur-containing alkane diols have been found to reduce fuel consumption in an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A composition comprising salts of lignin sulfonate and hydroxy-aluminum and water. The composition stabilizes soil formations from the effects of water and increases the water resistance of paper products.

Abstract: An antioxidant additive combination for lubricating oils is prepared by combining (a) a sulfur containing molybdenum compound prepared by reacting an acidic molybdenum compound, a basic nitrogen compound, and carbon disulfide, with (b) an aromatic amine compound.
