Systems and methods are provided for processing a feed derived from a renewable source to form oligomerized compounds corresponding to waxes, ketone waxes, and/or lubricant boiling range compounds. The oligomerized compounds derived from the renewable source can have various novel properties relative to waxes and/or lubricant boiling range compounds derived from mineral sources or derived from renewable sources in a conventional manner. The oligomerized compounds can be derived from a renewable source including fatty acids and/or fatty acid derivatives, such as glycerides (including triglycerides) and fatty amides. Optionally but preferably, at least a portion of the fatty acids and/or fatty acid derivatives can include olefinic bonds.

A link chain cleaning and lubricating device, and lubricants for use therein.

The invention relates to the use of calcium complex and calcium sulfate complex lubricating grease compositions as lubricants for wire ropes. The invention further relates to a method for producing the wire ropes and to wire ropes provided with the lubricating grease composition.

Disclosed is a composition of a lubricant for cold pilgering of zirconium alloy tubes. More particularly, disclosed is a composition of an external lubricant for cold pilgering of a zirconium alloy cladding tube, the composition exhibiting excellent lubricity and decomposition against microbes.

The present invention provides a grease composition to be used for lubrication between resin-made members or lubrication between a resin-made member and a member made from another material. With respect to the total mass of the composition, more than 0.5 mass % but less than 7.5 mass% of a solid organic molybdenum compound is contained.

Disclosed herein is a method for pretreatment of a metallic substrate for a subsequent metal cold forming process, said method including (1) providing at least one substrate, (2) contacting the at least one surface of the substrate provided in step (1) with an aqueous lubricant composition (A). and optionally (3) drying the coating film obtained after having performed step (2). Further disclosed herein are a pretreated metallic substrate obtainable by the aforementioned method, a method of cold forming of a metallic substrate including a step of subjecting the inventive pretreated metallic substrate to a cold forming process, an aqueous lubricant composition (A) as defined above, and a master batch for preparing the aqueous composition (A).

A dry film lubricant composition includes: an anionic wax emulsion including carnauba wax and an anionic surfactant; water; a thickener; an organic solvent; a fluorosurfactant; a phosphate additive; and an alkaline agent.

The invention provides a grease composition for lubricating resins which contains a base oil, a diurea compound represented by formula (I) as a thickener: R.sup.1—NHCONH —R.sup.2—NHCONH—R.sup.3 (I) (wherein R.sup.2 represents a bivalent aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 15 carbon atoms, and R.sup.1 and R.sup.3 each independently represent a straight-chain or branched alkyl group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms), and a chained hydrocarbon polymer having a weight-average molecular weight of 20,000 to 300,000.

Disclosed is a composition of a lubricant for cold pilgering of zirconium alloy tubes. More particularly, disclosed is a composition of an internal lubricant for cold pilgering of a zirconium alloy cladding tube, the composition exhibiting excellent lubricity and decomposition against microbes.

The invention provides a grease composition used for lubricating a mechanical part having a steel portion to be lubricated which performs a rolling motion and a rolling and sliding motion, containing a base oil, a thickener and an additive, wherein the additive includes at least one compound selected from the group consisting of polyethylene wax, oxidized polyethylene wax, polypropylene wax, montan wax and amide wax.
