A lubricant composition includes a mixture of grease and wax formed into a block which is solid at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 150° F., and which transforms into a semi-solid under mechanical loading. The mixture is formed with 5-25% of melted wax. The block may be coated to form a shell to remain solid at elevated temperatures. The block may include other additives. The grease block is suitable for use in various applications, including on a 5.sup.th wheel trailer hitch plate.

A lubricating oil composition contains a base oil and a rust inhibitor, in which the base oil has a gas chromatogram measured by gas chromatography satisfying the particular condition (), and the rust inhibitor is at least one selected from a first rust inhibitor, a second rust inhibitor, a third rust inhibitor, and a fourth rust inhibitor, and satisfies the particular condition ().

A lubricating grease composition, and more specifically, to a lubricating grease composition which, when used with an article clamping device, such as a chuck, produces excellent lubricating properties whilst remaining strongly adhered to metal parts in the clamping mechanism of the device and showing enhanced chemical and physical resistance to fluids such as cutting fluids with which they come into contact.

Provided is a lubricant composition having small shear rate dependence of its apparent viscosity. The lubricant composition includes a perfluoropolyether as a base oil, and fluorine resin particles as a thickener. The lubricant composition further includes a fluorine-containing polymer having a tetrafluoroethylene structure under a state in which the polymer is dissolved in the perfluoropolyether.

A friction control composition having high and positive frictional properties for sliding steel surfaces includes a water insoluble hydrocarbon that enables a reduced water content, a rheological additive, a freezing point depressant, a friction modifier, and a lubricant.

A dispensable grease sealant includes a base component in an amount of 50 wt % or more, based on a total weight of the sealant, and a thickener. The base component is selected from a group including a silicone wax, a liquid rubber, and a combination thereof.

A sliding member has a sliding surface sliding under a wet condition in which a lubricant oil exists. The sliding surface is coated with a laminate film comprising an upper layer and a lower layer. The lower layer comprises hydrogen-free amorphous carbon (hydrogen-free DLC) and carbon particles dispersed on or in the hydrogen-free DLC. The hydrogen-free DLC has a hydrogen content of 5 atom % or less when the lower layer as a whole is 100 atom %. The upper layer comprises boron-containing amorphous carbon (B-DLC) and has protrusions on a surface side of the upper layer along the carbon particles of the lower layer. The B-DLC has a boron content of 1-40 atom % when the upper layer as a whole is 100 atom %. The protrusions have a particle diameter of 0.5-5 m and exist with a density of 20 protrusions/100 m.sup.2 or more.

A friction control composition having high and positive frictional properties for sliding steel surfaces includes a water insoluble hydrocarbon that enables a reduced water content, a rheological additive, a freezing point depressant, a friction modifier, and a lubricant.

A process is provided for preparing a salt of a hydroxy-substituted di-ester of phosphoric acid, comprising: (a) reacting a phosphating agent with a monohydric alcohol and with a propylene glycol, wherein the mole ratio of monohydric alcohol : propylene glycol is greater than about 4:1 and wherein an excess of the phosphating agent is employed such that the product mixture formed thereby contains phosphorus acid functionality; and (b) reacting the product mixture of step (a) with an amine. The product is useful as an antiwear agent.
