A metallic fastener has a threaded portion coated with a composition. The composition includes (a) a paraffin wax with a melting temperature in the range of 50 to 70 C. (b) 1 to 5 parts by weight (pbw) of a resin per pbw of paraffin wax, (c) 0.1 to 0.25 pbw graphite per pbw of paraffin wax, and (d) 0.05 to 0.30 pbw of an FDA-approved silica per pbw of paraffin wax. A process for coating the metallic fastener includes: (i) providing the composition as defined above, (ii) maintaining the fastener or bringing it to a temperature in the range of 30 to 70 C., (iii) applying the composition at a temperature in the range of 100 to 170 C., (iv) optionally, removing surplus composition, (v) cooling the fastener to less than 100 C., (vi) finishing the fastener in a water bath, and (vii) drying the fastener.

Compositions having a plurality of hard particles and a plurality of lubricant nanoparticles are disclosed. Methods of making and using the compositions are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to water based wax dispersion comprising a hydrocarbon wax and a dialkylether for the coating of paper products, the use thereof, the method of coating paper products therewith and the coated printed paper product.

Nanoparticle compositions and greaseless coatings are disclosed, including, for example, a greaseless lubricant nanoparticle coating on drill pipe threads. The lubricant coating may be multifunctional, including, for example, anti-corrosives. The coating may be a spray, or otherwise.

A water-soluble metalworking fluid that includes a base oil (A) and an ether carboxylic acid (B) represented by general formula (b-1), where A is a C1-4 alkylene group, when multiple A are present, each A may be the same group or may be a different group, B is a single bond or a C1-4 alkylene group, n is an integer of 1-100, and R is a hydrocarbon group. The ether carboxylic acid (B) content is 0.1-10 mass % based on the total amount of the water-soluble metalworking fluid.

Compositions having a plurality of nanoparticles and nano-sheets are disclosed. Methods of making and using the compositions are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a process for the conversion of a low molecular weight polymeric byproduct obtained during production of high density polyethylene (HDPE), commonly known as low polymer wax (LPW) or polymer mud, into different products like different grades of paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax, lube and grease base stocks by a process comprising of thermal treatment in an inert atmosphere in the presence of organic peroxides or hydroperoxides and metal oxides. The end product depends upon the suitable selection of various process parameters like type of peroxides or hydroperoxides, metal oxides, temperature and duration of reaction.

Additive packages including multifunctional additive molecules are disclosed, including, for example, organic medium intercalated with lubricant nanoparticles. The additive package may be greaseless or may be added to materials such as base oils or greases, greaseless materials, or anti-corrosives, for example. The additive package added to materials may form a coating or lubricant that may be added to a surface of an object.
