Provided is a mold release agent composition containing a polymer ester, the composition exerting a good mold releasability even when the temperature of mold increases, and a die casting method using the composition.

The present invention relates to compositions in the form of silicone oil emulsions intended to be applied to curing bladders as a mould-release agent during tyre production.

A release agent for a hot-forging die, containing micronanobubbles.

A lubricant composition comprising one or several poly-alpha olefin homopolymer(s), a suspension of particles having a size between 0.5 m and 25 m and an additive, and uses thereof in the glass industry, such as in the production of hollow glasses for the packaging of products to be applied on mammals.

A low friction wear surface with a coefficient of friction in the superlubric regime including graphene and nanoparticles on the wear surface is provided, and methods of producing the low friction wear surface are also provided. A long lifetime wear-resistant surface including graphene exposed to hydrogen is provided, including methods of increasing the lifetime of graphene containing wear surfaces by providing hydrogen to the wear surface.

Rubber compound for the preparation of a tread portion of a pneumatic tyre comprising at least a cross-linkable unsaturated chain polymer base, a filler and a vulcanization system and a wax composed of at least 50% by weight of nonacosanediols.

The invention provides a lubricating composition comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity and synergistic mixture of a functionalized ethylene--olefin copolymer, a poly(meth)acrylate block polymer having a substantially oil soluble block and a substantially oil insoluble block. The invention also provides a method of lubricating a mechanical device using such a lubricating composition.

One aspect of the present invention is a lubricant to be incorporated into a powder metallurgical mixed powder containing an iron-based powder. The lubricant includes a flaky organic material having an average particle diameter of from 0.1 m to less than 3 m. Another aspect of the present invention is a powder metallurgical mixed powder which contains an iron-based powder and the lubricant. Yet another aspect of the present invention is a method for producing a sintered compact. The method includes the step of mixing materials to give a powder metallurgical mixed powder containing an iron-based powder and the lubricant. The powder metallurgical mixed powder is compacted using a die to give a powder compact. The powder compact is sintered to give a sintered compact.

A refractory formulation containing an anhydrous solvent, an oleophilic rheology modifier and a refractory aggregate exhibits non-thermoplastic behavior, and remains plastic and formable at temperatures in the range of 10 degrees Celsius to 180 degrees Celsius. The oleophilic rheology modifier may effectively bind with the solvent to create a gel-like structure with organic solvents with moderate to high polarity. A phyllosilicate clay that has been treated with a quaternary fatty acid amine may be used as the oleophilic rheology modifier.

The present application relates to citric acid-modified polypropylene glycols which are represented by Formula (1) or, as well as compositions comprising such compounds. The polypropylene glycol-based compounds of the invention are useful as additives and in particular as emulsifying agents in e.g. cooling lubricants, as release agents, as well as additives for cosmetic products.
