Abstract: A heat-treatment oil composition contains (A) at least one of a hydroxy fused fatty acid having a polymerization degree of 2 or more and a derivative of the hydroxy fused fatty acid. The heat-treatment composition may also contain (B) at least one of a mineral oil and a synthetic oil.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of lubricating a mechanical device by supplying a lubricating composition containing an oil of lubricating viscosity and a compound having 2 to 20 hydroxy-carboxylic acid residues. The invention further relates to the use of the compound in a driveline device to provide at least one of antiwear performance, friction modification (particularly for enhancing fuel economy).

Abstract: Lubricating oils containing an additive formulation including at least one sulphonate, saligenin and salixarate detergent provide improved wear performance and decreased sulphur and phosphorus emissions.

Abstract: A method of lubricating conveyor tracks or belts is herein described wherein the lubricant composition contains a polyalkylene glycol polymer, a fatty acid, and an anionic surfactant; also described is a lubricant composition with reduced sensitivity to low pHs. The composition may also comprise additional functional ingredients and be composed of ingredients that can be safely administered to humans and mammals.

Abstract: A lubricating oil comprising a major amount of at least one of Group II, III, and IV base oil and a minor amount of 3,5-di-t-butyl 4-hydroxy phenol propionate. A method of making this lubricating oil and a method of lubricating a natural gas engine with this lubricating oil.

Abstract: In order to produce aluminium oxide beads, an acid aluminium oxide sol or an acid aluminium oxide suspension is converted into droplets by a vibrating nozzle plate and pre-solidified after the formation of a bead shape by laterally blowing gaseous ammonia and then coagulated in an ammonia solution.

Abstract: A stabilization method of a vinyl compound with hydroxy group of an improved stability is achieved by preventing it from being denatured on storage, transportation, manufacturing process while maintaining its reactivity. A composition containing the vinyl compound with hydroxy group of an improved stability is obtained by the described stabilization method. The stabilization method is characterized by coexisting a vinyl compound with hydroxy group of formula (1), a primary antioxidant, alcohol and/or water, ##STR1## wherein R is a hydrogen atom or an organic residue, X is a --CN group, a --COR.sub.0 group or a --COOR.sub.0 group, and R.sub.0 is a hydrogen atom or an organic residue. In this stabilization method, not less than 50 ppm of alcohol and/or water is added with respect to the vinyl compound with hydroxy group. The stabilization method may be achieved by coexisting the above-defined vinyl compound with hydroxy group, the primary antioxidant and organic acid.
