The invention relates to a lubricating member for a razor cartridge comprising a lipid phase comprising a lipophilic structurant and a liquid phase, wherein said liquid phase comprises a metathesized unsaturated polyol ester which can be manufactured in a simple one batch process without thermal degradation and exhibiting improved lubricating and skin care properties over a sustained period.

The disclosed technology relates to lubricants for driveline and industrial gears containing a mono-ester or a mixture of mono- and di-esters, as well as a method of lubricating driveline and industrial gears with such a lubricant.

The present invention relates to an internal lubricant composition comprising two or more esters in which each individual ester has a carbon chain length of between 20 and 44. The internal lubricant composition may suitably be incorporated in to a polyester polymer matrix, preferably comprising PET, PETg or PLA. Use of the internal lubricant composition in a polyester polymer matrix to improve processes for manufacture of final products from the polyester polymer matrix is also contemplated.

The present invention provides a refrigerating machine oil comprising a hydrocarbon-based base oil having a viscosity index of 120 or less, and the refrigerating machine oil being used with a 1-chloro-2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene refrigerant.

A polymer comprising units having the structure (I): ##STR00001##
wherein x is 2 or 3, wherein L is (CH.sub.2).sub.y, where y is an integer from 1 to 10, or wherein L is CH(CH.sub.3)CH.sub.2S(CH.sub.2).sub.z, where z is an integer from 1 to 5; wherein [Q] is absent or is a polymerised moiety consisting of units having the structure (II): ##STR00002##
wherein R is a hydrocarbyl group, or a hydrocarbyl group containing one or more heteroatoms, wherein R may be linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, and wherein R has from 1 to 30 carbon atoms; wherein [Q] either consists of identical units of structure (II), or wherein [Q] consists of more than one different units of structure (II), differing in group R; and wherein X is a halogen or another chain terminating group. The polymers may find use as additives in lubricating compositions where they provide friction improvement and wear reduction.

A water-soluble metalworking fluid composition and a method of using the same. The water-soluble metalworking fluid composition has the components (A), (B), and (C), where (A) is a fatty acid having a carbon atom number of 9-11, (B) is an unsaturated fatty acid having a carbon atom number of 16-22, and (C) is a polymeric fatty acid having an acid value of 10-200 mgKOH/g. (A) is 1-20 mass %, (B) is 30-60 mass %, and (C) is 35-55 mass %, based on the total amount of the components (A), (B) and (C). The water-soluble metalworking fluid composition maintains the workability while improving the mechanical fouling.

The invention relates to the use of at least one triazole compound as an additive for improving the anti-corrosion properties of a lubricant composition for a propulsion system of an electric or hybrid vehicle, said lubricant composition comprising one or more amino and/or sulfur anti-wear additives. The invention also relates to the use of a lubricant composition for lubricating a propulsion system of an electric or hybrid vehicle.

Herein is provided a process for producing renewable products, such as alkenes, from a feedstock of biological origin. The process includes subjecting a feedstock including fatty acid glycerides and optionally free fatty acids, wherein at least one hydrocarbon chain is unsaturated, to esterification reaction in the presence of an alcohol. The ester stream thereby obtained is then fractionated and a fraction including esters of unsaturated C18 fatty acids is subjected to metathesis conditions in the presence of an alkene to obtain metathesis products. Fractionation of the metathesis products includes recovery of at least renewable 1-decene, and unsaturated C10-C15 fatty acid esters.
