This disclosure relates generally to metalworking fluids. This disclosure relates more particularly to water-soluble metalworking fluids that include high viscosity polymers, and that can be used in metal cold rolling operations.

A rubber friendly lubricant composition adapted for lubricating the cable in a greaseless down hole logging process including a general formulation: polypropylene glycol, poly alkylene glycol; amine borate; 1,3,4-Thiadiazolidine-2,5-dithione, disodium salt; and, deionized water. The lubricant being compatible with seals and rubbers, and other related materials, used on trucks and other oil field vehicles and equipment. Being water soluble, the lubricant also presents a low potential for fire risk, and is considered environmentally friendly. The lubricant also exhibiting superior freeze properties.

The present invention describes a water based semi-synthetic metal working fluid comprising a base oil, an organic acid, emulsifiers, optionally a concentrate additive, water and a microbial growth control agent which comprises a glycol ether amine.

The present invention provides a water-soluble metalworking oil composition, including: 5.0 to 20.0 mass % of a sulfur compound (A) that is one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of a sulfurized fat and oil and a sulfurized ester and has a kinematic viscosity of 10 to 800 mm.sup.2/s at 40° C.; 0.5 to 20.0 mass % of the nonionic surfactant (B) having an HLB of 6 to 18; 7.0 to 30.0 mass % of an unsaturated fatty acid polymer (C); and an amine compound (D) selected from the group consisting of a tertiary amine and a secondary amine.

The present disclosure generally relates to a multifunctional additive obtained from the reaction of: (a) an intermediate obtained from the reaction of maleic anhydride and a polyoxyalkylene monoamine; and (b) an amine compound comprising a primary amine group and/or a secondary amine group and its use in a variety of applications, including, but not limited to: as a corrosion inhibitor or friction modifier in aqueous and non-aqueous systems; in fuel deposit control agents; as a dispersant in pigment, asphalt and cement compositions; and as a detergent.

as described herein and a salt thereof.

A sulfonate-based grease composition and method of manufacture comprising (1) addition of both overbased calcium sulfonate and overbased magnesium sulfonate in a ratio range of 60:40 to 100:1, with the magnesium sulfonate added all at once, a portion prior to conversion and another portion after conversion, and/or one more delay periods between the addition of water or other reactive ingredient and the addition of magnesium sulfonate; (2) one or more delay periods between the addition of at least a portion of a facilitating acid and at least a portion of the next subsequently added ingredient; (3) no conventional non-aqueous converting agents added prior to conversion; or (4) a combination thereof. The grease has a high dropping point and reduced thickener yield.

Drilling fluid compositions and methods for using drilling fluid compositions are provided with enhanced lubricating properties that include an aqueous-based fluid, one or more drilling fluid additives, and a lubricating additive. The lubricating additive may be an epoxidized α-olefin and the drilling fluid may include the lubricating additive in an amount ranging from about 1 ppb to about 20 ppb. Methods for using the drilling fluid compositions may further include mixing an aqueous base fluid with one or more drilling fluid additives and a lubricating additive, wherein the lubricating additive includes epoxidized α-olefin and the drilling fluid may include the lubricating additive in an amount ranging from about 0.5 ppb to about 20 ppb, and introducing the drilling fluid to a subterranean formation.

A composition and method for reducing the coefficient of friction and required pulling force of a wire or cable are provided. A composition of aqueous emulsion is provided that is environmentally friendly, halogen free and solvent free. The composition is compatible with various types of insulating materials and may be applied after the wire or cable is cooled and also by spraying or submerging the wire or cable in a bath. The composition contains lubricating agents that provide lower coefficient of friction for wire or cable installation and continuous wire or cable surface lubrication thereafter.
