Patent number: 6716801Abstract: A stable, clear water-in-oil emulsion consisting of from about 5 to about 40 wt % aqueous phase and from about 95 to about 60 wt % non-aqueous phase, said aqueous phase being dispersed in said non-aqueous phase in the form of droplets having an average droplet size no greater than about 0.1 &mgr;m, said emulsion comprising at least 60 wt % of an oil selected from fuel oils, lubricating oils and mixtures thereof, from about 5 to about 30 wt % of an emulsifier composition, and the balance to 100 wt % water, wherein said emulsifier composition consists essentially of i) a mixture of C6-C15 alcohol ethoxylates, each comprising from 2 to 12 EO groups, ii) from 0 to about 25 wt % of an emulsifier selected from polyisobutylsuccinimide, a sorbitan ester and mixtures thereof, and iii) from 0 to about 90 wt % of an amine ethoxylate. The microemulsion is useful as a fuel and/or lubricant/coolant.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2002Date of Patent: April 6, 2004Inventor: David William Martin

Publication number: 20040058829Abstract: Thermally formed thermoplastic articles can be protected from stress cracking in the presence of stress cracking promoting compounds by forming a shaped article comprising a thermoplastic and a liquid hydrocarbon oil composition. We have found that the liquid hydrocarbon oil composition prevents the stress cracking promoting materials from interacting with the polymeric structure of the stressed container to prevent or inhibit stress cracking in such materials. The methods and compositions of the invention are particularly useful in preventing stress cracking in polyethylene terephthalate beverage containers during bottling operations during which the bottle is contacted with aqueous and non-aqueous materials such as cleaners and lubricants that can interact with the polyester to cause stress cracking particularly in the container base.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2003Publication date: March 25, 2004Applicant: Ecolab Inc.Inventors: Kimberly L.

Publication number: 20040053790Abstract: According to the invention there is provided a liquid friction control composition characterized as either having a high and positive friction characteristic or a low and neutral friction characteristic, comprising a retentivity agent. The liquid friction control composition may also comprise other components such as a solid lubricant, a wetting agent, a consistency modifier, and a preservative. The liquid friction control compositions may be used to modify the interfacial friction characteristics in sliding and rolling-sliding contact such as steel wheel-rail systems including mass transit and freight systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 9, 2003Publication date: March 18, 2004Inventors: John Cotter, Donald T.

Publication number: 20040052961Abstract: The present invention provides a continuous wire drawings process, wherein ferrous metal is drawn through multiple dies, in which the wire is coated in-line in an electroless coppering step between two wire drawing stages by being passed through a bath using transport means comprising ferrous metal components which contact solution in the bath, the bath containing an aqueous solution containing copper ions, bromide ions, a water soluble lubricant and an inhibitor compound such that a coating of copper is deposited on to the ferrous metal surface. A treatment composition as well as dry and liquid concentrate compositions are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2003Publication date: March 18, 2004Inventors: Kevin Brown, Hebert Trevor Pover
