A constant velocity joint having a boot constructed from a thermoplastic polyether ester as the boot material. The boot includes a lubricating grease composition for lubricating the constant velocity joint, the lubricating grease composition comprising calcium lignin sulfonate.

The invention relates to a method for preparing lignin derivative-based lubricating greases thickened by a polyurea thickener, lubricating greases thus prepared, and the use of such lubricant greases, inter alia, in transmissions, constant-velocity driveshafts and sealed roller bearings.

The disclosed technology relates to a lubricating composition comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity and an ashless basic amine additive selected from a secondary amine containing -carbon aromatic substitution. The basic secondary amine additives used in the lubricating oils of the disclosed technology impart basicity measured as total base number (TBN) without adding sulfated ash. Lubricating oils containing the basic secondary amine additives of the disclosed technology simultaneously achieve seals compatibility, deposit, and corrosion control.

An electrorheological fluid which comprises a dispersion medium containing fluorine atoms in an amount larger than 0 wt % but not larger than 50.0 wt % and particles for electrorheological fluid use that are contained in the dispersion medium in an amount of 10-50 vol % of the total volume of the dispersion medium and the particles, the particles comprising a sulfonic-acid-group-containing polymer having a sulfonic acid group content of 30-70 wt %.

An electrorheological fluid which comprises a dispersion medium containing fluorine atoms in an amount larger than 0 wt % but not larger than 50.0 wt % and particles for electrorheological fluid use that are contained in the dispersion medium in an amount of 10-50 vol % of the total volume of the dispersion medium and the particles, the particles comprising a sulfonic-acid-group-containing polymer having a sulfonic acid group content of 30-70 wt %.

This invention relates to malienated derivatives made from maleic anhydride, functionalized monomers, and one or more additional reagents, e.g., an oxygen-containing reagent (e.g., alcohol, polyol), a nitrogen-containing reagent (e.g., amine, polyamine, aminoalcohol), a metal and/or a metal compound. The invention relates to lubricants, functional fluids, fuels, dispersants, detergents and functional compositions (e.g., cleaning solutions, food compositions, etc.)

Provided is a lubricant composition that, even when the viscosity thereof has decreased, can suppress abrasion of bearings, etc. and scoring of gear tooth surfaces, etc. A lubricant composition that contains a lubricant base oil and a sulfur-based extreme pressure agent. The lubricant composition is characterized in that the amount of active sulfur in the extreme pressure agent is 5-30 mass % and in that the extreme pressure agent content of the lubricant composition is 5-15 mass % with respect to the mass of the whole composition.

The invention relates to a method for preparing lignin derivative-based lubricating greases thickened by a polyurea thickener, lubricating greases thus prepared, and the use of such lubricant greases, inter alia, in transmissions, constant-velocity driveshafts and sealed roller bearings.

A dry lubricant composition in powder form is provided based on a mixture of alkali metal salts of fatty acids and fatty acid glycerides which is useful in the production of aluminium cans in a deep drawing process, wherein the formed aluminium cans are immediately further processed to yield thin inorganic and/or organic protective coatings. The invention also encompasses the use of the lubricating powder for cold forming of aluminium as well as a process for the deep drawing of aluminium cans.

A synergistic mixture comprising from 1 to 99.9% by weight of compounds having structural elements (I) ##STR00001##
in which the free valencies on the oxygen atom and on the nitrogen atom may be combined to form a five-, six- or seven-membered ring and the benzene ring may also bear substituents at one or more of the free positions, and from 0.1 to 99% by weight of sulfur-containing organic compounds with antioxidant action. This synergistic mixture is suitable as a stabilizer for stabilizing inanimate organic material, especially mineral oil products and fuels, against the action of light, oxygen and heat.
