This disclosure relates to transfer plate lubricant compositions and methods of transporting open containers across stationary transfer plates.

A lubricating composition includes: from 0.1% to 10% by weight of a first organic acid including a fatty acid containing from 4 carbon atoms to 18 carbon atoms; from 1% to 10% by weight of a fatty amine containing from 10 carbon atoms to 26 carbon atoms; from 0.1% to 5% by weight of an acidity corrector; up to 10% by weight of a dispersant; up to 10% by weight of a second organic acid; up to 10% by weight of an organic solvent; and from 50% to 98.8% by weight of water.

A food grade lubricant composition includes an emulsion having 85%-95% w/w water, 1%-4% w/w polyalphaolefin 4, 1%-4% w/w sorbitan monolaurate, 2%-5% w/w polyoxyethylene 20 sorbitan monolaurate, and a food grade preservative.

The invention relates to the use of an O/W emulsion, in particular a PIT emulsion, for lubricating conveyor belt systems in food industries as well as a lubricant concentrate based on an O/W emulsion, in particular a PIT emulsion, of wax esters.

The present disclosure relates to conveyor lubricant compositions including an emulsion. The present disclosure also relates to methods of employing such lubricant compositions. In an embodiment, the methods include applying the present lubricant composition to a conveyor with a non-energized nozzle. In an embodiment, the methods include applying the present lubricant composition in a semi-dry mode.

The present invention relates to conveyor lubricant compositions including an emulsion of a lipophilic compound and also including an emulsifier and/or an anionic surfactant. The present invention also relates to methods employing such lubricant compositions. In an embodiment, the method includes applying the present lubricant composition to a conveyor with a non-energized nozzle.

A lubricant composition with improved stability and tolerance for water hardness comprises a synthetic wax emulsion; an amine derivative; an emulsifier; and a sequestrant. The synthetic wax emulsion may include poly(ethyleneoxide)-based or poly(propyleneoxide)-based wax emulsions. The amine derivative may include alkyl C.sub.12-C.sub.14 oxy propyl diamine. The lubricant composition can be used for lubricating the passage of a container along a conveyor. The method includes applying the lubricant composition to at least a part of the container or the conveyor in an application cycle, where the application cycle includes a first period of time of dispensing the lubricant composition and a second period of time of not dispensing the lubricant composition.
