A gear fluid composition for lubricating a driveline including organic sulfide compounds effective to achieve passing friction, extreme pressure, and copper corrosion.

The instant disclosure provides a process for preparing a lubricant or fuel additive mixture where an oil of lubricating viscosity or fuel are blended with additives that are mixed via an acoustic mixer. The additives and oil of lubricating viscosity or fuel can mixed together or any component of the lubricant or fuel additive mixture can be mixed separately prior to mixing to form the final lubricant. The process provides for continuous mixing to form lubricant and/or fuel additive mixture final products.

A lubricating oil composition excellent in the wear resistance and a refrigerator oil composition excellent in the oxidation stability using the lubricating oil composition are provided by a lubricating oil composition containing a base oil (A) and a phosphine derivative (B) having one or more oxygen atom in a molecule.

A lubricant composition comprising: at least one base oil; and from 0.1% to 30% by weight of a phosphorus ester compound of formula (A):

##STR00001## in which s is 0 or 1; and the radicals X represent, independently of each other, —OR′ or R′ moieties, where R′ represents hydrogen or a linear or branched hydrocarbon moiety, preferably having from 1 to 36 carbon atoms, with the proviso that: when s is 0, the three X radicals represent —OR′ moieties, and when s is 1, at least two of the three X radicals are —OR′ moieties.

A composite material comprising a plurality of polymer chains fixed to a base and swelled with a mixture which contains a salt and a hydrogen bond-donating compound and has a melting point maintained at 100° C. or less.

The invention is directed to a zinc-free lubricating composition for an internal combustion engine containing a phosphorus anti-wear agent, an ashless antioxidant, and a metal-free basic detergent. The lubricating composition provides wear protection, deposit control, and improved acid control with reduced levels of metal-containing additives.

The invention relates to the use of at least one phosphorus compound, which is free of sulfur and has no amine function, as an anti-wear and extreme-pressure additive in a lubricant composition for a propulsion system of an electric or hybrid vehicle. The invention also relates to the use of a lubricant composition comprising at least one phosphorus compound, which is free of sulfur and has no amine function, as an anti-wear and extreme-pressure additive, for lubricating and optionally cooling a propulsion system of an electric or hybrid vehicle, in particular for lubricating and cooling the electric motor and the power electronics of an electric or hybrid vehicle.

An industrial fluid additive composition comprises one or more sequestering agents one or more compounds of formula (A): (A) wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently selected from substituted hydrocarbyl moieties containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms or unsubstituted hydrocarbyl moieties containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms. ##STR00001##

With the present invention, sustainable systems for corrosion, inhibition in the processing of metals (in particular iron, aluminum and magnesium) are made available. These systems being in full accordance with the principles of green chemistry comprise an amino acid as neutralizing component for an acidic corrosion inhibitor, whereby the amino acid is used in deprotonated form. The resulting metalworking fluids may be water- or oil-based or semi synthetic formulations. The neutralization of acidic corrosion inhibitors with the claimed system comprising an amino acid consistently achieves convincing results and, together with acidic corrosion inhibitors from corresponding sources, completely renewable systems for corrosion inhibition are provided.

A lubricant additive composition and lubricant composition are provided that include one or more friction modifier compounds and antiwear compounds. Methods of lubricating moving metal surfaces of a machine are also provided.
