The present invention addresses a problem of providing a grease composition that uses hydrophilic nanofibers but still has excellent water resistance and does not readily experience oil separation. The grease composition contains a base oil, hydrophilic nanofibers having a thickness (d) of 1 to 500 nm, and an organic bentonite.

A water-based lubricating grease composition includes at least 40 wt % water; a salt-based thickener; a polymer-based thickener; and optionally, an inorganic solid-based thickener. A process for preparing the water-based lubricating grease composition may include blending a suitable amount of water with a salt-based thickener to provide a thickened water-based grease, wherein the salt-based thickener is obtained from contacting a base with a fat; and adding a polymer-based thickener to the thickened water-based grease.

A lubricant composition is described. The novel lubricant composition has superior thermal stability, and can reduce the need to replenish the lubricant. The lubricant composition includes at least a soap component, a thickener component, an oil component, and a spherical polyolefin component (optionally Microthene). The spherical polyolefin component includes polyolefin microparticles.

What is provided is a fluorine-containing ether compound represented by the following formula. R.sup.1—CH.sub.2—R.sup.2—CH.sub.2—OCH.sub.2CH(OH)CH.sub.2O—CH.sub.2—R.sup.3—CH.sub.2—R.sup.4 (In the formula, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are perfluoropolyether chains, and R.sup.1 and R.sup.4 are terminal groups having two or three polar groups, in which individual polar groups are bound to different carbon atoms and the carbon atoms to which the polar groups are bound are bound to each other via a linking group having a carbon atom to which the polar groups are not bound).

Disclosed is a cutting oil composition, which is vastly superior in view of layer separation, dispersibility, viscosity, ingot-cleaning time after sawing, and wafer warpage after sawing, compared to conventional cutting oil compositions, and which includes mineral oil that is highly hydrogenated, as represented by Chemical Formulas 1 to 3, bentonite clay as a thickener, and glycerol trioleate as a dispersant. A cutting method using the cutting oil composition is also provided.

A friction control composition having high and positive frictional properties for sliding steel surfaces includes a water insoluble hydrocarbon that enables a reduced water content, a rheological additive, a freezing point depressant, a friction modifier, and a lubricant.
