Abstract: The present invention provides a method for coating wax or resin particles with metallic soap, wherein (a) a water dispersion of wax or resin particles, the dispersion containing water-soluble fatty acid soap, and (b) an aqueous solution or a water dispersion of a polyvalent metal compound are mixed in such a manner that an equivalent ratio of the polyvalent metal compound to the water-soluble fatty acid soap is 0.5 to 1.5.

Abstract: There are disclosed metallic soap fine particles which have an average particle size of 4 .mu.m or smaller and have a content of particles having particle sizes of 10 .mu.m or larger of at most 4% by weight based on the whole metallic soap fine particles; a process for producing the metallic soap fine particles, comprising mixing (a) an aqueous solution containing 0.001 to 20% by weight of an alkali metal salt or an ammonium salt of a fatty acid having 4 to 30 carbon atoms with (b) an aqueous solution or dispersion containing 0.001 to 20% by weight of an inorganic metal salt at a specific temperature to form a slurry of the metallic soap, and drying the resultant slurry at a specific temperature. The metallic soap, which has remarkably fine particles and narrow particle size distribution, is well suited for use e.g.

Abstract: An organic lubricating coating composition for use in plastic deformation of a metal sheet comprises a maleic anhydride/styrene copolymer which has been at least partially esterified with one or more organic hydroxy compounds, or a salt of the esterified copolymer. The molar ratio of the maleic anhydride component to the styrene component in the copolymer is in the range of from 1:99 to 75:25. At least 10% by weight of the organic hydroxy compounds is comprised of a long-chain hydroxy compound containing from 10 to 30 carbon atoms.
