This disclosure describes low ash lubricating composition achieving passing steel corrosion, passing high temperature deposit formation, and emulsion stability. The lubricating compositions include one or more select corrosion or rust inhibitor chemistries having an oil-soluble acyclic structure with acidic, hydroxy, or amine moieties but being free of imine, imide, and/or amidine moieties.

A method of lubricating an expandable rubber bladder is described for use during a vulcanization of a green tire within a metal press. The method can include applying compositions in the form of emulsions of silicone oils to the inner surface of the green tires and/or to the outer surface of the vulcanization bladders to facilitate the molding-demolding thereof during the manufacture of the tires.

The present invention provides polyamide compositions comprising (a) at least one polyamide mixture; (b) at least one reinforcing filler; (c) at least one heat stabilizer; and (d) at least one ionic lubricant, wherein the (a) at least one polyamide mixture is formed from (i) a polyamide 6,6, the amount of AEG being greater than the amount of CEG, and (ii) a blend of a first high chain-length polyamide having viscosity number (VN) of X.sub.1 and a second high chain-length polyamide having VN of X.sub.2, X.sub.1 being greater than X.sub.2. The polyamide composition can be advantageously used to produce articles exhibiting enhanced chemical resistance, notably CaCl.sub.2 salt crack resistance, such as radiator end tank in an automobile.

This relates to the coating of air bags, which are used for safety purposes to protect occupants of vehicles such as automobiles, and of air bag fabrics intended to be made into air bags. In particular the invention relates to the top coating of air bags and air bag fabrics which have been pre-coated with a cured organic resin coating composition. The top-coat is an anti-blocking coating composition comprising at least one solid lubricant dispersed in an organic polymer binder. A process for applying the top-coat is also described.

This invention relates to malienated derivatives made from maleic anhydride, functionalized monomers, and one or more additional reagents, e.g., an oxygen-containing reagent (e.g., alcohol, polyol), a nitrogen-containing reagent (e.g., amine, polyamine, aminoalcohol), a metal and/or a metal compound. The invention relates to lubricants, functional fluids, fuels, dispersants, detergents and functional compositions (e.g., cleaning solutions, food compositions, etc.).

The present invention provides a novel surface-modified inorganic substance obtained by modifying the surface of an inorganic nitride or an inorganic oxide with a boronic acid compound, and a heat dissipation material, a thermally conductive material, and a lubricant which use the surface-modified inorganic substance. The present invention also provides a method for manufacturing the surface-modified inorganic substance, and provides, as a novel method for modifying the surface of an inorganic substance selected from an inorganic oxide and an inorganic nitride with an organic substance, a method for modifying the surface of an inorganic nitride or an inorganic oxide with an organic substance that includes making a contact between the inorganic nitride or the inorganic oxide with a boronic acid compound.

A coating composition for a lubricating coating film includes: (A) a phenolic resin; (B) an epoxy resin having an epoxy equivalent weight of 600 to 4000; and (C) at least one type of solid lubricant. The epoxy equivalent weight is generally defined by the number average molecular weight per the number of epoxy groups in a single molecule. The coating composition has a weight ratio of component (A) to the total weight of component (A) and component (B) of at least 50 weight %. A lubricating coating film, formed from the coating composition, has a high level of flexibility on surfaces of various base materials.
