A plunger lubricant for die casting includes a component (a), a component (b), a component (c), and water. The component (a) is one or two or more compounds selected from among mineral oils, synthetic hydrocarbons, and fatty acid esters. The component (b) is one or two or more compounds selected from among alkali metal salts of higher fatty acids or alkali metal salts of aliphatic hydroxy acids. The component (c) is an alkali metal salt of an oxoacid or polyoxoacid that is able to be dehydrated and condensed.

Described herein is a stabilized lubricant composition for use in steel casting, in particular in continuous casting processes. In particular, the lubricant composition for processes for producing steel by continuous casting includes a dispersion of a lubricant powder, for an ingot mold, in continuous casting, in an oily liquid means, and a stabilization additive, characterized in that it has the following shear thinning index values: TABLE-US-00001 RVT 0.1/1 1/10 10/100 100/1000 STI 3.0-7.5 2.0-6.5 1.0-3.0 0.5-2.0 wherein RVT is the ratio between two different shear speeds and STI is the shear thinning index corresponding to the RVT values.

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.

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 %.
