The present disclosure relates to a lubricant composition including a base oil, a thickener and a thickener supplement, and a method of manufacturing the same. The lubricant composition of the present disclosure is effective at improving performance at high-temperature by maintaining the evaporation amount and friction characteristics even at high temperatures, thus inhibiting oil contamination of powertrain parts and the like and maintaining sticking phenomenon even in a high-temperature environment, thereby increasing the durability of parts.

A lubricating composition which, when used with a device for clamping an article, such as a chuck, produces excellent lubricating properties whilst remaining strongly adhered to metal parts in a clamping mechanism of the device and showing enhanced chemical and physical resistance to fluids such as cutting fluids.

A well bore cementing system may comprise a spacer fluid and a cement slurry. The spacer fluid may be positioned within a well bore, and the spacer fluid may comprise a first surfactant package comprising one or more surfactants. The cement slurry may be positioned within the well bore, and the cement slurry may comprise a second surfactant package comprising one or more surfactants.

Zinc complex greases with different complexing acids having dropping points comparable to lithium greases and tailor-made dropping points can be made by processing at low temperature in open as well as close kettle process. The present invention discloses a process of manufacturing Zinc complex greases—through reaction of fatty acid and complexing acid with zinc oxide in mineral oil to obtain zinc complex greases having high dropping points of 180 to 280° C.

A low friction wear surface operable at high temperatures and high loads with a coefficient of friction in the superlubric regime including MoS.sub.2 and graphene-oxide on the wear surface is provided, and methods of producing the low friction wear surface are also provided. The low friction wear surface remains with a coefficient of friction in the superlubric regime at temperatures in between about 200° C. and 400° C.

Technologies are described for a durable low friction coating (DLFC), which may be manufactured by mixing a binder, a filler, and one or more additives in liquid form, rolling the liquid mixture onto a coil material and curing for subsequent cutting and stamping. The DLFC may be used to coat an abutment clip or a brake shim directly onto a metal substrate or over an elastomer layer. Water-based binders may be used for environmentally friendly brake systems. In some examples, the binder in the DLFC may be in a range from at least 70 weight % to less than 95 weight %, the filler in a range from at least 1 weight % to less than 15 weight %, and the additives in a range from at least 0.2 weight % to less than 5 weight %.

A coating composition for the piston of an internal combustion engine comprises 10-30 wt. % of phenolic resin, 10-30 wt. % of epoxy resin, 10-30 wt. % of at least one solid lubricant selected from the group consisting of graphite, MoS.sub.2, WS.sub.2 and BN, and 5-30 wt. % of Fe.sub.2O.sub.3 particles.

A sulfonate-based grease composition and method of manufacture comprising (1) addition of both overbased calcium sulfonate and overbased magnesium sulfonate in a ratio range of 60:40 to 100:1, with the magnesium sulfonate added all at once, a portion prior to conversion and another portion after conversion, and/or one more delay periods between the addition of water or other reactive ingredient and the addition of magnesium sulfonate; (2) one or more delay periods between the addition of at least a portion of a facilitating acid and at least a portion of the next subsequently added ingredient; (3) no conventional non-aqueous converting agents added prior to conversion; or (4) a combination thereof. The grease has a high dropping point and reduced thickener yield.

A curing formulation operative as a lubricant is provided that has a plurality of silicone polymer precursors constituting a majority by weight of the formulation, each of the plurality of the silicone polymer precursors has a single curable moiety. A crosslinker is provided for reaction with the single curable moiety of each of the plurality of silicone polymer precursors to yield a thermoplastic silicone polymer having a majority by total weight of silicone polymer being comb- or branched-polymer form as the lubricant. A process of lubricating an interface is provide that includes the application of an aforementioned composition to the interface. Upon allowing sufficient time for the formulation to cure in ambient temperature conditions, a thermoplastic silicone polymer is formed having a majority by total weight of silicone polymer being comb- or branched-polymer.

A threaded tubular connection for drilling or operating hydrocarbon wells contains a portion of a tubular element with a male end having an axis of revolution and provided with a first threading extending about the axis of revolution, the male end portion being complementary with a portion of a tubular element with a female end having an axis of revolution and provided with a second threading extending about the axis of revolution, the male and female end portions being capable of being connected by makeup, each of the male and female end portions further comprising a sealing surface with a metal-metal interference, wherein the threading and the sealing surfaces of the male and female end portions are coated with a metallic anti-corrosion and anti-galling layer wherein zinc (Zn) is the major element by weight.
