Abstract: An improved organic and molybdenum friction modifier combination is disclosed, the combination resulting in a synergistic result of both initial friction reduction performance and a further retention and durability of continued friction reduction performance. These results will produce added benefit from, e.g., formulated passenger car motor oils targeting lower viscosity formulations to help improve fuel economy.

Abstract: Polyurethane and polyurethane-urea compositions are prepared by amine cure under catalyzed reaction conditions. The curing reaction is performed with an acid anhydride based curing catalyst which is added to a prepolymer and then subsequently reacted with an amine based curative.
Abstract: The present invention relates to sealing elements for blowout preventers comprising a sealing interface region, and a second region, wherein said sealing interface region is formed of a first polymer and said second region is formed of a second polymer, the first and second polymers having different Shore A hardnesses, including sealing elements made of dual hardness polyurethane.
Abstract: Certain citric esters and amides, and certain mixtures thereof, e.g., mixtures comprising citrate oligomers, exhibit excellent anti-wear activity in lubricants. Many of these compounds or mixtures of compounds also exhibit a high degree of anti-wear synergy in combination with zinc dihydrocarbyldithiophosphates. The compounds of the invention are thus valuable tools that can allow one to reduce the amounts of zinc, and phosphates, that are used in the lubricant without sacrificing anti-wear performance.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for the production of non-halogenated phosphorus containing, thermally stable flame retardant materials directly in the form of a powder or small particles. The process generally includes heating one or more phosphonic acid salts in a high boiling, water miscible, acid stable solvent to dehydration reaction temperatures of 200° C. or higher.
Abstract: The invention discloses a lubricating grease with thixotropy and a preparation method thereof. The lubricating grease comprises a polyurea/high base number calcium sulfonate composite thickener, colloidally dispersed calcium carbonate solid particles in the form of calcite, a calcium borate or calcium borate composite, and a calcium soap of fatty acid having 12 to 24 carbon atoms. The above components are uniformly dispersed in an oil phase medium. The content of high base number calcium sulfonate in the lubricating grease is less than 22 wt %.
Abstract: A phosphorus-containing flame retardant is produced by reacting at a reaction temperature a mixture including a metal or suitable metal compound and a stoichiometric excess relative to the metal or suitable metal compound of an unsubstituted or alkyl or aryl substituted phosphonic or pyrophosphonic acid, wherein the phosphonic or pyrophosphonic acid is in a molten state at the reaction temperature. The chemical composition of the resulting flame retardant product leads to excellent flame retardancy and exhibits high thermal stability. The presently disclosed flame retardants are useful, for example, in polymer compositions, particularly thermoplastics processed at high temperatures, over a wide range of applications.
