Abstract: In the cold drawing of steel tubing, an excellent lubrication which permits drawing the tubing while retaining its original metallic luster can be achieved by first contacting the surfaces of the tubing, both exterior and interior, with a colloidal titanium containing aqueous composition, drying the tubing, and then applying to the surface of the tubing a liquid lubricating composition comprising (i) from 40 to 95% of a first component selected from the group consisting of olefin/oil or olefin/fat compounds which contain from 23 to 30% of sulfur and olefin/higher ester compounds which contain from 23 to 30% sulfur, including mixtures of two or more chemical species meeting this description; and (ii) from 5 to 50% of a second component selected from the group consisting of oil soluble polymer compounds, fats and oils, synthetic oils, mineral oils, higher fatty acids, and the amine salts of higher fatty acids.

Abstract: An information recording medium processing apparatus including a light radiating device that uniformly radiates a light beam on a plurality of recording tracks of an information recording medium and a magnetic field applying unit that applies a magnetic field to a region of the information recording medium irradiated with the light beam, thereby simultaneously erasing information recorded in the plurality of recording tracks.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cold rolling oil for steel sheets characterized by incorporating various rolling oils with oil-soluble high-molecular compounds which are obtained by salt-forming:(a) homopolymers of nitrogen-containing monomers or copolymers of two or more of said monomers having the following general formulae (I) and (II): ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is H or CH.sub.3, and R.sub.2 as well as R.sub.3 are CH.sub.3, C.sub.2 H.sub.5, or C.sub.3 H.sub.7, respectively, or(b) copolymers selected from at least one nitrogen-containing monomers having said general formulae (I) and (II) and at least one of acrylic or methacrylic acid, or the alkyl esters or alkyl amides thereof.with a compound selected from fatty acids of 6-9 carbon atoms, diesters of fatty alcohols of 6-9 carbon atoms and phosphoric acid and mixtures thereof.
