  • Patent number: 4164473
    Abstract: Hydrocarbon-soluble organo molybdenum complexes obtained as the reaction product of a hydrocarbyl substituted hydroxy alkylated amine e.g. N,N',N'-tris(2-hydroxy ethyl)-n-tallow-1,3-diaminopropane, with about one molar equivalent of a molybdenum compound, e.g. ammonium molybdate, are useful hydrocarbon additives particularly in combination with an oil-soluble sulfur donor, e.g. a metal dialkyl dithiophosphate to provide an additive combination for lubricating oils since the lubricating compositions comprising these co-additives exhibit improved anti-friction and anti-wear properties.

  • Patent number: 4013570
    Abstract: An improved colloidal graphite hot forming lubricant and hot forming process for high density ferrous powdered metal articles using this lubricant. Extremely fine powdered copper is included in an otherwise conventional colloidal graphite hot forming lubricant. High quality, including high density, ferrous metal articles are produced by coating a ferrous powdered metal preform with this lubricant, presintering the coated preform at a higher temperature of 2100.degree. - 2500.degree. F. for a short time by induction heating, allowing the presintered preform to cool to a desired hot forming temperature below 2000.degree. F., and then hot forming the preform in the usual manner. Lubricant-preform interaction at the higher temperature is precluded, making long presintering times and special presintering equipment necessary.

  • Patent number: 3998745
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semi-fluid lubricant resistant to shear thickening to a controlled apparent viscosity is provided wherein a soap base containing about 14% soap is shear thickened and then diluted with oil to a desired soap content. The use of a soap base containing about 14% soap as opposed to the usual method of using a soap base containing about 5% soap surprisingly results in a finished semi-fluid lubricant which will not appreciably increase in viscosity during the handling and packaging process.
