Abstract: New fuel and lubricant compositions are provided which, when used to fuel or lubricate an engine such as an internal combustion engine, help to reduce friction in such engine. It is contemplated that these compositions will also reduce fuel consumption by the engine.

Abstract: Particulate coal is rendered less subject to spontaneous ignition by simultaneously spraying or otherwise contacting it and cooling it with an aqueous emulsion in water of foots oils, petrolatum filtrate, or hydrocracker recycle oils in water.

Abstract: Copper salts of hindered phenol carboxylic acids are used in lubricants and fuels compositions as an antioxidant.

Abstract: Particulate coal is rendered less subject to spontaneous ignition by simultaneously spraying or otherwise contacting it and cooling it with an aqueous emulsion in water of a light cycle oil, heavy cycle oil, clarified slurry oil, durene, and other carbonaceous materials derived from coal liquefaction and petroleum refining. Aqueous polymer emulsions and oxidation inhibitors can also be used.

Abstract: Disclosed is a grease composition comprising a major proportion of a grease, a hydroxy-containing soap thickener and a minor amount of a boronated oxazoline compound. The hydroxy-containing soap thickener and boronated oxazoline compound are each added in amounts sufficient to increase the dropping point of the grease an appreciable amount. Generally this can be an increase of at least 15.degree. F. and could be as great as 200.degree. F. to 250.degree. F. or more. Sulfur and phosphorus compounds can also be incorporated into the composition.

Abstract: Grease compositions, wherein the grease is thickened with a metal hydroxy-containing soap grease thickener are provided. Another essential ingredient of the composition is a borated hydrocarbyl diol. The compositions may also contain phosphorus and sulfur moieties.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lubricant composition made up to a lubricant and an oxidized sulfurized isobutylene prepared by reacting a mild oxidizing agent with commercially available sulfurized isobutylene. The lubricant composition imparts improved roller bearing life.

Abstract: Polyhydroxy-containing hydrocarbylamines, when added to a lubricant or to a liquid fuel, reduce friction between surfaces of metal in contact. They also can reduce fuel consumption in an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: The reaction products of the appropriate triamine and organic monocarboxylic acid demonstrate friction reducing properties when formulated into lubricants, particularly lubricating oils, and fuel consumption reduction properties when formulated into such lubricants or into fuels.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for accelerating the exchange of hydrogen between a hydrogen donor and a petroleum resid to be subjected to cracking, visbreaking, or coking. Acceleration is effected by incorporating an aqueous solution of ammoniun sulfide into the mixture of donor and resid and subjecting the mixture to a period of heat-soaking at an elevated temperature.

Abstract: Dialkyl phosphites are reacted with sulfur. The resulting product is further reacted with an alkylene oxide to form a lube oil product. A better additive results when phosphorus pentoxide is then reacted with the resulting product and this product is further reacted with an amine to form an amine phosphate salt.

Abstract: The invention provides certain N-alkylalkylenediamine amides and their use as friction reducing additives in lubricants. They are also antioxidants and are useful in applications where additive are not corrosive to copper.

Abstract: Disclosed are multifunctional additives for fuel and lubricant compositions. These additives are borated hydrocarbyl vicinal diols, made by reacting the diol with a boron-containing compound such as boric acid or trialkyl borate. These are useful in formulating lubricants and liquid hydrocarbon fuels.

Abstract: A borated oxazoline monoester, made by reacting a boron compound with the product of reaction between tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and carboxylic acid is a new composition of matter. It is useful in a lubricating oil for reducing friction, and, therefore, fuel consumption in an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: Disclosed is an additive composition for lubricants and hydrocarbon fuel compositions formed by reacting an olefin, elemental sulfur, hydrogen sulfide, and a polymeric succinimide compound. The reaction product is effective when mixed in desired proportions with lubricants and with hydrocarbon fuels.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are the reaction products of dialkyl or diaryl phosphorodithioate acids and hydrocarbyl diols, hydroxyester or related polydiols and borating agent. These reaction products are useful as additives for lubricating compositions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process for stabilizing the liquid resulting from the thermal treatment of a hydrocarbon resid by coking, visbreaking or thermal cracking. The liquid product is contacted with a gaseous stream of hydrocarbons from an exterior source containing alkyl such as methyl CH.sub.3. free-radicals. The free radicals are derived by contacting methane, ethane, propane or a mixture thereof with a magnesia catalyst at a temperature of about 500.degree. C.

Abstract: Particulate coal is rendered less subject to spontaneous ignition by spraying or otherwise contacting it with a light cycle oil, heavy cycle oil, clarified slurry oil, a solution of durene in gasoline and mixtures of two or more of the preceding.

Abstract: Coal is rendered less subject to abrasion and disintegration by reducing it to a 0.2 to 0.5-inch particle size and drying it at a temperature of 200.degree. to 230.degree. F. for 3-7 minutes. The coal is rendered less susceptible to spontaneous ignition by the application of a treating agent which is a petroleum resid mixed with clarified slurry oil or a petroleum resid mixed with a distillate.

Abstract: Disclosed is a grease composition comprising a major proportion of a grease, a hydroxy-containing soap thickener and a minor amount of a boronated catechol compound. The hydroxy-containing soap thickener and boronated catechol (ortho dihydroxybenzene) compound are each added in amounts sufficient to increase the dropping point of the grease an appreciable amount. The catechol (ortho dihydroxybenzene) compounds useful in this invention include catechol borates, catechol-alcohol borate compounds and catechol-amine borate compounds.
