Abstract: Lubricant compositions are made containing, as a metal protectant additive, an overbased amorphous alkaline earth metal salt of fatty acid. The additive is added in either a liquid or powdered form to the base oil in the composition. The overbased additive in the lubricating composition serves as a metal protectant to provide detergency, friction-modifying and acid-neutralizing properties to the compositions.

Abstract: Liquid overbased calcium/barium/zinc ternary systems are provided for stabilizing halogen-containing polymers. These overbased ternary stabilizer systems are shelf stable liquids and provide polyvinyl chloride compositions with improvements in thermal stability, early color, clarity and plate-out resistance.

Abstract: Shelf stable haze free liquids of overbased alkaline earth metal salts are obtained by reacting metal base with fatty acids in the presence of liquid hydrocarbon and aliphatic alcohols having at least 8 carbon atoms to provide overbased liquids essentially free of a phenol or a phenolic derivative. Stabilizer compositions containing the overbased liquids and mixed metal stabilizers of zinc, cadmium and tin are provided for stabilizing halogen-containing polymers.

Abstract: Powdered overbased amorphous alkaline earth salts are made which consist essentially of isolated solid agglomerated micelles of amorphous alkaline earth metal salts complexed with an amorphous alkaline earth metal carboxylate of a fatty acid. The process for making the powder involves precipitating and isolating the solid particles from liquid overbased alkaline earth metal compositions.

Abstract: A multi-component composite coating composition is provided which includes a basecoat deposited from an aqueous basecoat film-forming composition and a transparent topcoat applied over the basecoat, the transparent topcoat being deposited from a topcoat film-forming composition. The topcoat film-forming composition includes one or more crosslinkable film-forming resins and one or more amphiphilic adjuvants including: a water-soluble polar end having at least one terminal hydrophilic group selected from hydroxyl groups, carbamate groups, amide groups and urea groups; and a water-insoluble hydrocarbon end having at least six contiguous carbon atoms. The adjuvant has an acid value of less than 30 and is present in an amount ranging from about 0.01 to about 25 weight percent on a basis of total resin solids of the topcoat film-forming composition.

Abstract: A coated substrate is provided which includes an outer coating formed from a film-forming composition which includes a crosslinkable, non-gelled acrylic polymer and a crosslinking material capable of reacting with the acrylic polymer to form a crosslinked outer coating. The acrylic polymer is the reaction product of a polyoxyalkylene acrylate monomer comprising a terminal alkoxy group containing about 1 to about 6 carbon atoms and a copolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer different from the polyoxyalkylene acrylate monomer. A multi-component composite coating composition is also provided.
