Abstract: A lubricating oil additive composition which imparts improved oxidation properties to crankcase lubricants comprises an antioxidant selected from aromatic or alkyl sulfides and polysulfides, sulfurized olefins, sulfurized carboxylic acid esters and sulfurized ester-olefins, and a hydroxy amine of the formula: ##STR1## wherein A and A' are C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 alkylene, R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 alkyl, Y is H, C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl of --A--OH, y is 0, 1 or 2, and x is 1 or 2. Lubricating oil compositions containing this additive composition are also disclosed.

Abstract: Wax-flux compositions for use in low-temperature soldering processes comprise (A) a major amount of a wax and (B) an effective amount to cause fluxing, at or below the soldering temperature of the piece to be soldered, of a wax-soluble product obtained by first reacting an aliphatic hydrocarbon-substituted succinic acid or derivative thereof which is capable of forming carboximide bonds with an alkylene polyamine to form a carboximide and then reacting said carboximide with an alkylaryl sulfonic acid. A process for soldering electrical components to a printed circuit board comprises (A) applying a molten wax-flux composition as described above to the metal pattern side of the board, (B) allowing the wax-flux composition to solidify, (C) trimming the components leads, and (D) soldering the components to the printed circuit board.

Abstract: Alkenyl halolactone esters of monools and polyols are described. These materials are useful as lubricating oil detergency and/or dispersancy additives.
