A water-soluble metalworking oil may include 0.7% by mass or more of 2-phenoxyethanol (A), based on the total water-soluble metalworking oil mass. A content of petroleum sulfonate may be less than 10 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the 2-phenoxyethanol (A). The 2-phenoxyethanol (A) may be present in a range of from 0.7 to less than 5.0% by mass. The water-soluble metalworking oil may further include: an amine, a fatty acid (C), and/or a nonionic surfactant (D).

An extremely rheopectic sulfonate-based grease composition and method comprising adding overbased calcium sulfonate, overbased magnesium sulfonate, and a facilitating acid, using a particular type of overbased calcium sulfonate and/or methods for adding overbased calcium sulfonate relative to the magnesium sulfonate and facilitating acid to favor the reaction between the magnesium sulfonate and facilitating acid. A preferred overbased calcium sulfonate comprises benzene rings having multiple alkyl groups. Preferred methods comprise (1) adding all calcium sulfonate after adding the magnesium sulfonate and facilitating acid, (2) adding a first portion of calcium sulfonate with the magnesium sulfonate before adding the facilitating acid and a second portion of calcium sulfonate after the facilitating acid, and/or (3) one or more calcium sulfonate delay periods relative to adding the facilitating acid. The extremely rheopectic grease is fluid and pourable and only takes on a grease structure after milling or shearing.

A lubricating oil composition may include a base oil (A), a neutral phosphorus compound (B), an acidic phosphorus compound (C), a sulfur compound (D) and a metal salt (E) including a metal sulfonate, a metal salicylate, and/or a metal phenate, in which a content of the acidic phosphorus compound (C) in terms of phosphorus atoms is 10 to 180 ppm by mass based on the total amount of the lubricating oil composition, a content of the sulfur compound (D) in terms of sulfur atoms is 10 to 1000 ppm by mass based on the total amount of the lubricating oil composition, and a content of the metal salt (E) in terms of metal atoms is 5 to 180 ppm by mass based on the total amount of the lubricating oil composition.
