Abstract: The glass containers described herein have at least two performance attributes selected from resistance to delamination, improved strength, and increased damage resistance. In one embodiment, a glass container may include a body having an inner surface, an outer surface and a wall thickness extending between the outer surface and the inner surface. A compressively stressed layer may extend from the outer surface of the body into the wall thickness. The compressively stressed layer may have a surface compressive stress greater than or equal to 150 MPa. A lubricous coating may be positioned around at least a portion of the outer surface of the body. The outer surface of the body with the lubricous coating may have a coefficient of friction less than or equal to 0.7.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to composite pillar arrangements for VIG units that include both harder and softer materials. The softer materials are located on the outside or extremities of the central, harder pillar material. In certain example embodiments, a high aspect ratio mineral lamellae is separated by an organic “glue” or polymer. When provided around a high strength pillar, the combination of the pillar and such a nano-composite structure may advantageously result in superior strength compared to a monolithic system, e.g., where significant wind loads, thermal stresses, and/or the like are encountered.

Abstract: A wear and/or friction reducing additive for a lubricating fluid in which the additive is a combination of a moderately hydrophilic single-phase compound and an anti-wear and/or anti-friction aqueous salt solution. The aqueous salt solution produces a coating on boundary layer surfaces. The lubricating fluid can be an emulsion-free hydrophobic oil, hydraulic fluid, antifreeze, water, or a water-based lubricant. Preferably, the moderately hydrophilic single-phase compound is sulfonated castor oil and the aqueous salt solution additionally contains boric acid and zinc oxide. The emulsions produced by the aqueous salt solutions, the moderately hydrophilic single-phase compounds, or the combination thereof provide targeted boundary layer organizers that significantly enhance the anti-wear and/or anti-friction properties of the base lubricant by decreasing wear and/or friction of sliding and/or rolling surfaces at boundary layers.

Abstract: Provided is a water-soluble rubricating agent for plastic working being capable of forming a lubricating film having lubricity and seizure resistance equal to or greater than a phosphorus-containing chemical conversion treatment film, having excellent corrosion resistance, and also having good film adhesion, without including phosphorus in the film. This water-soluble non-phosphorus lubricating agent for plastic working includes an inorganic solid lubricant as component A, a wax as component B, and a water-soluble inorganic metal salt as component C, wherein the mass ratio (component A/component B) of solid content for component A to solid content for component B is 0.1 to 5, and the mass percentage (component C/(component A+component B+component C)) of solid content for component C to total solid content for components A, B and C is 1 to 30%.

Abstract: Lubrication additives of the current invention require formation of emulsions in base lubricants, created with an aqueous salt solution plus a single-phase compound such that partitioning within the resulting emulsion provides thermodynamically targeted compounds for boundary layer organization thus establishing anti-friction and/or anti-wear. The single-phase compound is termed “boundary layer organizer”, abbreviated BLO. These emulsion-contained compounds energetically favor association with tribologic surfaces in accord with the Second Law of Thermodynamics, and will organize boundary layers on those surfaces in ways specific to the chemistry of the salt and BLO additives. In this way friction modifications may be provided by BLOs targeted to boundary layers via emulsions within lubricating fluids, wherein those lubricating fluids may be water-based or oil-based.

Abstract: A lubricant composition comprising from 0.1 to 10% by weight of a phosphate glass, characterized in that said phosphate glass comprises from 45 to 75 mole % of P.sub.2 O.sub.5, from 10 to 35 mole % of M.sub.2 O (M represents alkaline metals) and from 0 to 45 mole % of B.sub.2 O.sub.3. Phosphate glasses are in the form of powder with white to ash-colored appearance, and do not cause dirt of working surroundings. Phosphate glasses are less expensive than solid lubricants which are conventionally used, and also excellent load carrying capacity can be attained by adding a small amount of phosphate glass to a lubricant composition. Accordingly, the lubricant composition of the present invention shows better load carrying capacity than a conventional lubricant composition.
