Provided is a grease composition for a magnet clutch of an automobile, including: a base oil; and a thickener, wherein the composition contains 5% by mass or more of a sulfur content in terms of sulfur element relative to a total mass of the composition.

The invention provides a lubricating oil composition comprising a ethylene/-olefin copolymer and, optionally, and additive comprising an amine salt of a hydrocarbyl thiophosphoric acid ester. The invention also provides a method of improving air release of a lubricating oil composition by mixing an ethylene/-olefin copolymer with an oil of lubricating viscosity.

A lubricant composition comprising one or several poly-alpha olefin homopolymer(s), a suspension of particles having a size between 0.5 m and 25 m and an additive, and uses thereof in the glass industry, such as in the production of hollow glasses for the packaging of products to be applied on mammals.

Lubricating oil composition is provided. The composition includes several components including a major amount of a base oil, a mixture of alkylated diphenylamines having a weight ratio of mono-alkylated diphenylamine to di-alkylated diphenylamine ranging from 0.6 to 4.0, and a molybdenum or sulfur additive that provides synergistic enhancement of oxidation stability in combination with the mixture of alkylated diphenylamines.

Lubricant compositions comprising a base oil, one or more antioxidants selected from a group consisting of N--naphthyl-N-phenylamine antioxidants and diphenylamine antioxidants; and a sulfur-containing additive comprising up to seven carbon atoms exhibit outstanding oxidative stability and non-corrosion properties. The N--naphthyl-N-phenylamine antioxidants plus diphenylamine antioxidants in total may be present from about 0.2 wt % to about 0.8 wt %, based on the total weight of the lubricant composition. The sulfur provided by the sulfur-containing additive may be present from about 50 ppm to about 1000 ppm by weight, based on the total weight of the lubricant composition.
