Phase change material compositions and methods for using the compositions to prepare substrate coatings or bulk blended polymers that advantageously lower friction between interacting substrate surfaces and lower substrate surface wear.

The present invention is directed to aqueous compositions with wax and graphene. These compositions offer surprising benefits in reducing bicycle or motorbike chain lengthening, particularly in off road environments with high dirt and water levels such as during mountain biking or off-road biking. The invention is further directed to a method of preparing such compositions and to the use of such compositions on bicycle or motorbike chains.

An environmentally-improved motor oil blend and related methods for properly lubricating components of an engine and favorably modifying a plastic response of components of the engine, the blend being free of zinc di-alkyl-di-thiophosphates (ZDDP) and free of zinc di-thiophosphate (ZDTP), comprising: a motor oil selected from the motor oil group consisting of Group I, Group II, Group III, Group IV, and Group V motor oils; a motor oil additive comprising alpha-olefins and hydroisomerized hydro-treated severe hydrocracked base oil; ZDDP omitted from the chemical constituents of the motor oil; and ZDTP omitted from the chemical constituents of the motor oil.

The present invention describes a chemically-assisted machining process that converts conventional lubricant chemistries to produce reactive oxygenated species that accelerate the formation of friction-reducing boundary layer lubrication during cutting operationstermed Ozonolytic Machining. The new type of cooling-lubricant chemistry is based on chemical reactions between unsaturated bio-based oils and alcohols, and other types of machining lubricants, containing carbon-carbon double or triple bonds, with ozone gas to form variously reacted or polymerized ozonidestermed super-oxygenated fluids, oils or alcohols, aldehydes or ketones, sulfurized ozonides and super-oxygenated gels.

A furniture lubricant for coating a linear lacquered furniture slide bar to provide a slide layer with lowered friction. The furniture lubricant comprises a C10 to C28 alkane and a tri-glyceride. The viscosity, according to ISO 3104:1994/COR 1:1997, of the furniture lubricant at 40 C. is 20 to 80 mm.sup.2/s.

A synthetic lubricant, cleaner and preservative composition and related methods for weapons and weapon systems, comprising: at least one isomer solvent; Alox 2100 calcium sulfonate; and at least one base oil selected from the base oil group consisting of: group I base oils; group II base oils; and group III base oils. Optional ingredients comprise mineral spirits, alpha-olefins, synthetic calcium sulfonates, fluoro-additives, and common moellen degras.

A lubricant composition is disclosed. The lubricant composition provides lubrication between metal parts, is able to clean metal parts and prevent build-up of contaminants within the lubricant composition. The lubricant composition includes a plurality of heptane aliphatic hydrocarbons, a non-heptane aliphatic hydrocarbon, a naphthenic petroleum base oil, an octadecenoic acid, and an ethoxylated alcohol. The plurality of heptane aliphatic hydrocarbons may include one-third branched heptanes, one-third cyclic heptanes, and one-third linear n-heptane. The non-heptane aliphatic hydrocarbon may be any aliphatic hydrocarbon with fewer than six carbon atoms that are not linked in a ring formation. The octadecenoic acid in the lubricant composition is generally 9-octadecenoic acid.
