A coating composition for producing an article is disclosed. The coating composition includes a blend of a polymer resin and a lubricating oil, wherein the coating composition is in a liquid-phase By using the coating composition, it is possible to produce the article which can be used in various industries, only with a simple process of molding and curing a polymer resin by the technique of the prior art.

The present invention provides a cutting work method comprising a cutting work step of forming a through-groove passing through from a surface to a back face of a workpiece material by cutting the workpiece material with a cutting tool while bringing a lubricant material for assisting cutting process into contact with the cutting tool and/or the to-be-processed portion of the workpiece material, wherein the workpiece material comprises one or more materials selected from the group consisting of a metal, a fiber reinforced plastic, ceramic, and a composite material thereof.

An oxyalkylated branched aliphatic compound produced by oxyalkylating a branched aliphatic compound having 12 or more carbon atoms in which the branched aliphatic compound having 12 or more carbon atoms is grafted with a polyether via a crosslinking reaction, wherein the polyether is a polymer of ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, butylene oxide, and combinations thereof, may be useful as an inverting aid for increasing the dissolution rate of a latex-based drag reducing agent in a liquid hydrocarbon.

Coatings for medical devices having selectable levels of durability and lubricity are disclosed. The coatings include polymeric material components, the characteristics and relative amounts of which can be selected to provide target levels of durability and lubricity. Methods of making the coatings for medical devices are also disclosed.

A lubricant material for assisting machining process comprising a polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide copolymer having a weight average molecular weight of 5.0×10.sup.4 or more and 2.0×10.sup.5 or less.

The present invention relates to a coating composition that can produce an article having an inner surface and an outer surface, both of which are slippery, and a method for preparing the same. By using the coating composition according to the present invention, it is possible to produce the article having the inner surface and the outer surface, both of which are slippery, only with a simple process of molding and curing a polymer resin by the technique of the prior art. The article produced using the coating composition of the present invention can solve an ice removal on a surface of the machinery such as an aircraft and an automobile, a biofouling problem in a blood vessel, a problem requiring self-cleaning, and the like, and thus can be used in various industries.
