A lubricant composition for a resin-resin sliding portion or a resin-metal sliding portion that contains a base oil containing a perfluoropolyether oil including a side chain, and a polytetrafluoroethylene having a primary particle diameter of 1 μm or larger and a melamine cyanurate as thickeners.

Provided are a lubricant composition for shock absorbers, a lubricant additive, and a method of adjusting friction characteristics of a lubricant composition for shock absorbers, each capable of satisfying both the operational stability and ride comfort. The lubricant composition for shock absorbers contains a base oil and a friction adjusting agent, the friction adjusting agent contains pentaerythritol esters, and the pentaerythritol esters contain a pentaerythritol tetraester and a pentaerythritol ester other than the pentaerythritol tetraester.

Provided are an electroviscous fluid exhibiting a high ER effect and having sufficient durability, and a cylinder device. An electroviscous fluid of the present invention includes a fluid and polyurethane particles containing metal ions. The polyurethane particles have a phase separation structure of a hard segment and a soft segment, and contain an additive increasing a urethane bond forming the hard segment.

A spring part, in particular for a driving device, includes a spring body extending around a central axis. The spring body comprises several spring windings which run radially around a spring axis and are made of at least a base material. The base material is surrounded at least by a first protective layer, and the spring body is at least partially covered on the outside by a lubricant. A method for manufacturing a spring part includes the steps of providing a spring body with several spring windings made of a base material and coating the base material at least with a first protective layer. The method includes the step of applying a lubricant formed as a silicone-based lubricant to the outside of the coated spring body.

This ball screw grease composition for a rack-assisted electric power steering contains a thickener, a base oil, and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a Ca sulfonates, fatty acids, and triglycerides, wherein the kinematic viscosity of the base oil at 40° C. is 4-100 mm2/s, and the worked penetration of the composition is 265-385.

An embodiment of the present invention relates to a paste which includes a perfluoropolyether (A) having two or more ethylenically unsaturated bonds in the molecule, a polysiloxane (B) having two or more ethylenically unsaturated bonds in the molecule, and a radical initiator (C).

A drive device includes a slide bearing; a shaft that passes through the slide bearing; a gear that is fixed to the shaft; and a grease composition that is held in a clearance between the slide bearing and the shaft. At least one of the slide bearing and the shaft is made of a resin. The clearance is in a range of 10 to 110 μm. The grease composition contains a hydrocarbon base oil and lithium soap serving as a thickener. A weight ratio of the hydrocarbon base oil to the lithium soap is in a range of 94.5:5.5 to 96.0:4.0. A consistency of the grease composition is in a range of 360 to 400.

The invention relates to a food-compatible high-temperature lubricant, more particularly a high-temperature oil and a high-temperature grease, comprising the following components: a) at least one oil selected from a trimellitic ester or a mixture of different trimellitic esters, alkylaromatics, preferably an aliphatically substituted naphthalene, or estolides; b) a hydrogenated or fully hydrogenated polyisobutylene or a mixture of hydrogenated or fully hydrogenated polyisobutylene; and c) additives individually or in combination.

In the case of the high-temperature grease, a thickener is added.

The present invention relates to a lubricating composition for an engine, in particular for a motor vehicle engine, comprising at least one base oil and at least one compound able to release formaldehyde under the temperature and pressure conditions of the combustion chamber of the engine.

It also relates to the use, in a lubricating composition intended for an engine, of a compound able to release formaldehyde under the temperature and pressure conditions of the combustion chamber of the engine, as an additive for preventing and/or reducing pre-ignition, in particular low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI).
