The present invention relates to a device for electrically processing a fatty substance of plant origin, comprising a series of electrodes (1 and 2) and an enclosure (4), said device being characterised in that the enclosure (4) is provided with at least one electrical connector (5) placed on the outer surface (40) of the enclosure (4), a series of electrical connections for connecting each electrode of said series of electrodes to said electrical connector (5), with the current flow distances of the electrical connections being equal in relation to each other, and a first inlet (6) and a first outlet (7) for the fatty substance, and in that said device comprises a filter (12) having an inlet (13) in fluidic connection with said first fatty-substance outlet (7) of the enclosure (4) and an output (14) in fluidic connection with said first fatty-substance inlet (6) of the enclosure (4).

Various liquid and semisolid lubricant compositions are provided, in particular lubricant compositions containing oil from the seeds of the Brassicaceae Orychophragmus violaceus, preferably those that have been esterified with one or more fatty acids such as palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, or a combination thereof. In various aspects, lubricant compositions are provided that include a petroleum or a synthetic base oil and about 40% or less by weight of a liquid lubricant composition containing oil from the seeds of the Brassicaceae Orychophragmus violaceus, preferably those that have been esterified with one or more fatty acids. In various aspects, semisolid lubricant composition are provided containing an emulsion of (i) a thickener and (ii) an oil from the seeds of the Brassicaceae Orychophragmus violaceus, preferably those that have been esterified with one or more fatty acids.

Compositions and methods are provided that generated a persistent low-friction coating on a solid surface, by application of a mixture of a polyethylene glycol-containing surfactant and a vegetable to the surface. The coating thus generated does not require replenishing during use and persists through rinsing and multiple uses. Surprisingly, markedly reduced friction is found when the surfactant is provided at 3% w/v to 7% w/v in the composition. Such compositions and methods are suitable for application to both mixing and separation operations. Formulation of such compositions with food grade components permits use in food processing.

An organic lubricant composition comprising a vegetable oil; an organic acid; and an organic alcohol, where the organic lubricant composition is substantially free of inorganic compounds.

An overbased metal detergent grease comprising at least one of polyalkylene glycol and/or an acid having at least one of both a nitrogen and a sulfur atom. The grease has improved extreme pressure performance as measured by the Standard Test Method for Measurement of Extreme-Pressure Properties of Lubricating Grease (Four-Ball Method), ASTM D2596. Methods of making an overbased metal detergent grease comprising using at least one of polyalkylene glycol and/or an acid having at least one of both a nitrogen and a sulfur atom. Methods of lubricating mechanical components using the grease comprising contacting the mechanical component with the grease. Mechanical components can include gears, drivetrain elements, bearings, hinges, or combinations thereof.

A high viscosity lubricant and dispenser for use in machine work. In one example, the lubricant includes avocado oil and has a viscosity that allows it to be dispensed from a twist-up type, or other suitable dispenser as a paste, gel, or semi-solid. In another aspect, the lubricant includes wax to increase viscosity, the wax may be of any suitable type such as, for example, soy wax.

The present application relates to metal cutting, and more particularly to a cutting fluid and a preparation method and an application thereof, especially the application in the processing of niobium-tungsten alloy (NB521). The preparation method of the cutting fluid is simple and requires low production cost. In the mechanical processing of niobium-tungsten alloy (NB521), the cutting fluid has good cooling performance, lubricity, load-bearing capacity, friction reduction and vibration absorption, and long service life. It also can effectively avoid built-up edges, thereby improving the service life of cutting tools and the processibility of materials. Therefore, products of good quality are produced to improve the yield, especially in the deep hole machining, and thus the cutting fluid of the present application is suitable for a wide range of applications.

This disclosure provides a triglyceride oil possessing an extremely low cloud point and low viscosity concomitant with a higher than anticipated saturated fatty acid content, very low polyunsaturated fatty acid content, and low iodine value. While many naturally occurring triglyceride oils possess one or more of these properties, natural triglyceride oils lack one or more of these attributes, thus making them less than ideal in industrial applications, such as lubricants, fuels, or dielectric fluids. The combination of attributes possessed by a triglyceride oil described herein, achieved without the addition of any additives, is unique compared with natural counterparts and as such, can find wide applications in the aforementioned fields.

This disclosure provides compositions comprising a suspension package, wherein the suspension packaging consists of solids for suspending in one or more liquids, wherein the solids comprise at least one of: (1) diamond dust, nano-diamonds, or combinations thereof; (2) tungsten; (3) graphite, graphene, or combinations thereof; and (4) silicon carbide. Further, 0.25% through 6% by volume of the composition, with the one or more liquids being present, in a 14.0 ppg aqueous CaBr.sub.2 solution, provides a coefficient of friction of less than 0.06 at a temperature between 250° F. and 400° F. at any time up through 10 minutes after combination of the 0.25% through 6% by volume of the composition to the 14.0 ppg aqueous CaBr.sub.2.

A dry lubricant composition in powder form is provided based on a mixture of alkali metal salts of fatty acids and fatty acid glycerides which is useful in the production of aluminium cans in a deep drawing process, wherein the formed aluminium cans are immediately further processed to yield thin inorganic and/or organic protective coatings. The invention also encompasses the use of the lubricating powder for cold forming of aluminium as well as a process for the deep drawing of aluminium cans.
