Disclosed is a composition of continuously variable transmission oil for improving fuel efficiency and endurance performance. Provided herein is a novel composition of continuously variable transmission oil that can improve fuel efficiency through reduction of fluid resistance by decreasing viscosity at a low temperature, and can enhance endurance performance of the transmission by increasing the viscosity at a high temperature. Provided herein is a continuously variable transmission oil composition containing a predetermined amount of olefin amide comb PMA as a viscosity adjusting agent in a base oil having a pour point of 40 C. or less, in addition to additives.

The present invention relates to an aqueous lubricant composition for the lubrication of a stationary or mobile drive system, comprising at least: deionized water; at least one polyalkylene glycol; at least one antifreeze compound chosen from glycols, and at least one phosphorus compound. It also relates to the use of this aqueous lubricant composition for the lubrication and cooling of a stationary or mobile drive system.

Provided herein are grease compositions comprising at least one estolide compound of formula:

##STR00001##

in which n is an integer equal to or greater than 0; m is an integer equal to or greater than 2; R.sub.1, independently for each occurrence, is selected from optionally substituted alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched; R.sub.2 is selected from hydrogen and optionally substituted alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched; and R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, independently for each occurrence, are selected from optionally substituted alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched. Also provided are methods of making estolide-based grease products.

A gun oil composition adapted specifically for the needs and requirements of modern firearms. The gun oil composition improves lubricity and gun performance under normal and extreme heat and pressure, minimizes and largely prevents the build-up of carbon and debris fouling on metal and non-metal components of the firearm, and substantially reduces cleaning time, while providing increased protection against environmental components such as dust, dirt and rust. The gun oil composition can include a base oil having at least a high viscosity index, an oil having at least a medium viscosity index with a detergent additive, a low viscosity penetrating oil, and a sulfurized ester.
