  • Publication number: 20110041638
    Abstract: A grease composition includes: a poly-?-olefin having a kinematic viscosity at 40 degrees C. of 60 to 320 mm2/s, the poly-?-olefin being contained in an amount of 50 mass % or more relative to a whole composition; a thickener that is a lithium salt of a hydroxyl-free fatty acid having 10 to 22 carbon atoms; and an ashless dithiocarbamate and/or zinc dithiocarbamate that are contained in an amount of 0.1 to 1.5 mass % in terms of sulfur relative to a whole composition. In the grease composition, a phosphorous content is 0.05 mass % or less relative to the whole composition, and a worked penetration is in a range from 265 to 310.

  • Publication number: 20100035779
    Abstract: A grease which comprises a base oil containing at least 50% by mass of a diester compound having a total carbon number of 28 to 40 and represented by the general formula (I): R1OOC—(R2)n—COOR3 ??(I) wherein R1 and R3 each independently represent a C4 to C20 monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group, R2 represents a C1 to C20 divalent hydrocarbon group and n is 0 or 1. The grease is excellent in both low-temperature performance and high-temperature performance and has low oil separation tendency even under high centrifugal force (acceleration). In particular, when the grease is used in a rotational transmission device having a built-in one-way clutch, the grease can provide satisfactory clutch engagement property (intermeshing ability) at low temperatures and a prolonged bearing life at high temperatures and is less apt to cause oil separation under high centrifugal force.
