A lubricant for firearms includes a base and nanoparticles dispersed throughout the base. The base may include a hydrocarbon or a mixture of hydrocarbons. The base may be in a liquid form or in a semisolid form. Fat from an animal source, such as porcine fat or, more specifically, bacon fat, may be employed as a hydrocarbon of the base. Fat from an animal source may be rendered or otherwise clarified. The nanoparticles may include nanospheres, which may have an average diameter of about 100 nm or less. The lubricant may also include a hydrocarbon from a vegetable source (e.g., a vegetable oil, etc.), a hydrocarbon from a petrochemical source, and/or a synthetic petrochemical lubricant. The lubricant may include a fragrance to impart it with a desired scent (e.g., a bacon scent, etc.). Methods for lubricating and cleaning metallic surfaces of firearms are also disclosed. In such a method, nanoparticles from a lubricant may be introduced into and retained within microscopic crevices in the metallic surfaces.

Disclosed herein is a method of pretreatment of a metallic substrate for a subsequent metal cold forming process. The method includes at least steps (1) and (2), namely providing at least one substrate having at least one surface at least partially made of at least one metal (step (1)), contacting the at least one surface of the substrate provided in step (1) with an aqueous lubricant composition (B) (step (2)), where the aqueous lubricant composition (B) includes besides water at least constituents (b1) to (b4) and optionally (b5).

Further disclosed herein are a pretreated metallic substrate obtained by the method, a method of cold forming of a metallic substrate, and an aqueous lubricant composition (B).

A lubricant composition adapted for a two stroke cycle engine comprises 5 wt. % to 35 wt. % of an oil of lubricating viscosity, greater than 50 wt. % to 90 wt. % of a hydrocarbon solvent and at least one additive selected from (i) a dispersant and (ii) a friction modifier.

A liquid crystalline resin composition including a liquid crystalline resin, an olefin-based copolymer, a micro filler having an average particle diameter (D50) of 3 ?m or less, and a carbon-based filler, wherein a content of the micro filler is 6 to 20 wt % based on a total weight of the liquid crystalline resin composition, and an aspect ratio of the micro filler is 6 or less, and wherein a content of the olefin-based copolymer is 3 to 10 wt % based on the total weight of the liquid crystalline resin composition.

A lubricant composition includes (a) a hydrocarbon oil including at least 30% wt of isoparaffins, based on the total weight of the hydrocarbon oil, and (b) an alkoxylated natural oil. A method of using the lubricant composition in a water-based composition, in particular a water-based mud, to improve the lubricity and/or to reduce the foaming properties of the water-based composition is also disclosed.

The current invention a eco-friendly lubricant. The components of the lubricant are as follows, CANOLA OIL, PALM OIL, SOY WAX, SWEET ORANGE OIL which is adjusted for fragrance and Vitamin E to extend the shelf life of products by preventing oxidation and by slowing the growth of certain bacteria. The lubricant will be semi-solid. To use it is heat to bring semi-solid to liquid and squeeze the semi-solid out of tube to area, then apply heat.
