Method for increasing lubrication in metal working processes by the use of phosphate esters of propoxylated and ethoxylated alcohols.

A booster additive concentrate may advantageously contain: (a) an anti-wear mixture of two or more phosphite/phosphate compounds and one or more ether/thioether compounds; (b) an ashless dispersant; (c) a calcium-containing detergent, such as an overbased calcium phenate; (d) ≥2 friction modifiers, at least one of which comprises a polyalkylene polyamine succinimide derivative; (e) optionally a corrosion inhibitor; and (f) a lubricating oil basestock. Based on these additive components, the booster additive concentrate may exhibit specific contents of B/Ca/P and may contain minimal or substantially no additional antioxidants. Lubricant compositions can be made from the booster additive concentrates and a fresh/used lubricant oil composition “diluent,” which can rejuvenate the diluent. Such lubricant compositions can have advantageous anti-shudder durability (ASD) lifetimes and other frictional properties. In particular, such concentrates/compositions can offer superior lubrication when used in vehicles with continuously variable transmissions (CVTs).

Lubricant composition, in particular a cooling lubricant solution, based on ionic and/or organoelemental compounds.

In metalworking, the amount of sulfur supplied is stabilized in wide temperature and pressure ranges and under an external force, such as a shear force. Thus, a stable iron sulfide film can be formed on the metal surface, and lubricity can be maintained for extended periods. Furthermore, a bulky sulfurized fat or oil with a high molecular weight can be used to form a rigid lubricating oil film with a large oil film thickness on the metal surface and thereby prevent metals from approaching each other. A sulfur-based extreme-pressure agent containing a polysulfide (a) and a sulfurized fat or oil (b) at a mass ratio in the range of 1:0.1 to 1:10. A metalworking fluid containing the sulfur-based lubricating oil composition is also related to.

A grease composition comprises a thickener, a base oil, and a friction modifier. The friction modifier comprises: at least one selected from the group consisting of fatty acids, fatty acid metal salts, phosphate esters, thiophosphate esters, and zinc dithiophosphates; and a polyhydric alcohol ester.

Trisubstituted triazine antioxidants.
