A process for converting a molten polymeric material is provided. The process includes effecting disposition of a molten polymeric material, having at least one carbon-carbon double bond, in sufficient proximity to a catalyst material within a reaction zone, to affect a reactive process that effects generation of a reaction product. The reactive process effects cleaving of at least one carbon-carbon double bond. The catalyst material includes [FeCuMoP]/Al.sub.2O.sub.3 prepared by binding a ferrous-copper complex to an alumina support to generate an intermediate material and reacting the intermediate material with a heteropolyacid.

Provided are a lubricating oil composition containing a base oil, a specific thiophosphate compound (A) and a molybdenum-based compound (B), which exhibits excellent wear resistance and has a low friction coefficient in a broad range of contact pressures ranging from high to low; and a precision reduction gear using the lubricating oil composition.

A lubricant composition comprising one or several poly-alpha olefin homopolymer(s), a suspension of particles having a size between 0.5 m and 25 m and an additive, and uses thereof in the glass industry, such as in the production of hollow glasses for the packaging of products to be applied on mammals.
