Abstract: Methods and computer-readable media provide for the management and administration of employee eligibility forms, e.g., United States Form I-9. An I-9 Management and Administrative Program (IMAP) maintains an inventory accounting process for United States employee I-9 forms, provides a semi-automated means of contacting employees in specific circumstances using specific dates as a basis, and reports on the status of I-9 forms. An employee eligibility form may assume different medium types, including a paper format, CD-ROM, and electronic format. An employment eligibility document is received from an employee, where the employment eligibility document includes an employee eligibility verification form. The employment eligibility document is verified, and, when a discrepancy is detected, the employee is automatically notified about the discrepancy. The employment eligibility document may include at least one supporting document in order to establish the identity and employment eligibility of the employee.

Abstract: A two-cycle engine lubricant comprising from about 10% to about 30% low ash detergent inhibitor; from about 10% to about 45% bio-based ester selected from the group consisting of castor oil, a synthetic polyol-based ester and mixtures thereof; from about 14% to about 37% polyalphaolefin; from about 7% to about 18% synthetic ester; from 2% to about 10% surfactant; and from about 2% to about 5% pour point depressant; by weight of the lubricant. Optionally, the subject two-cycle lubricant can also comprise up to about 20 weight percent solvent, such as Stoddard solvent, to improve miscibility of the lubricant with gasoline fuel. The subject lubricant can be pre-packaged with gasoline for use with small engines not equipped for direct lubricant injection. A method for making the subject lubricant composition so as to resist subsequent separation of the components into layers is also disclosed.

Abstract: A translucent wire and cable lubricant containing from about 30 to about 80 weight percent of a mixture further comprising a resin and an oil, from about 10 to about 40 weight percent solvent, from about 1 to about 15 weight percent thermoplastic synthetic polymer, from about 1 to about 15 weight percent oxidized wax, from about 1 to about 15 percent sheep tallow, an extreme pressure agent, an antiwear agent, and a corrosion inhibitor.

Abstract: An overbased calcium sulfonate grease comprising neutral oil, calcium sulfonate, calcium carbonate, dodecyl benzyl sulfonic acid, isopropyl alcohol, water, calcium hydroxide, 12-hydroxy stearic acid, phosphoric acid and an antioxidant.

Abstract: Lubricant compositions adapted for use under extreme conditions comprising a major proportion of an oil or grease base material, and a minor proportion of an aromatic polyamide fibrous substance in an amount sufficient to impart a fibrous texture to the base material.

Abstract: Lubricant compositions adapted for use under extreme pressure, high temperature and high speed conditions comprising a major proportion of an oil or grease base material, having a dropping point above about 300.degree. F., and a minor proportion of an additive system containing as an essential component an inorganic phosphate salt, or mixture thereof, in solid form. Preferred salts are alkaline earth metal ortho- or pyrophosphates exemplified by dicalcium phosphate.

Abstract: A lubricant composition having special utility as a lubricant in constant velocity universal joints of the type used in front wheel drive vehicles. The composition comprises a low sulfur lubricating oil base grease and an additive package comprising a mixture of an oil soluble, sulfur-free organic compound and an oil insoluble sulfur-free inorganic compound.

Abstract: Lubricant compositions adapted for use in lubricating traction motor gears comprising a major proportion of a base oil such as a mineral oil, and a minor proportion of an oil soluble polymer such as a polyisobutylene.

Abstract: A method is described for recovering palladium from spent catalytic colloidal palladium baths by dissolving the palladium to form a true solution followed by electrodeposition employing a nickel anode and a nickel or copper cathode.
