Abstract: A composition is provided to comprise a non-aqueous medium and a 3,4-oxypyridine compound of structure (I): with each A being oxygen and/or sulfur, and with a variety of substituents at R1-R5 to enable a solution or an at least semi-stable emulsion to be formed in the non-aqueous medium. Methods of use are included herein, which may be focused on situations where the composition can be used as a lubricant and/or coolant.
