A synthetic and semi-synthetic fire-resistant hydraulic fluid compositions are disclosed. According to one preferred embodiment, the composition may include water, a hydrophilic co-solvent, an oil, a lubricant, a neutralizing agent, a non-ionic surfactant, an anionic surfactant. Optionally, the compositions may further include a corrosion inhibitor, an anti-foaming agent and a biocide.

A lubricant for increasing the sliding capability of an item of sports equipment, in particular an item of winter sports equipment. The lubricant including an aqueous solution having an aqueous silicone emulsion, an emulsion of a polydimethylsiloxane, and a water-based formulation having methylisothiazolinone and/or benzoisothiazolinone.

The invention relates to aqueous polymer dispersions comprising at least one polymer obtainable by the reaction of at least one monomer M1 of the general formula (I): H.sub.2C═CH—C(O)OR, wherein R is an unbranched alkyl chain comprising from 18 to 22 carbon atoms, and optionally at least one monomer M2. The invention relates moreover to a method for the preparing of such aqueous polymer dispersion and the use thereof as pour point depressant for crude oil, petroleum, and petroleum products.

A method and composition for reducing a coefficient of friction are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method for reducing a coefficient of friction between two surfaces in a borehole includes preparing a mixture comprising a primary lubricating agent, a primary surfactant, a spreading agent, and an aqueous fluid. The method also includes pumping the mixture into the borehole such that the mixture contacts the two surfaces and reduces the coefficient of friction for the two surfaces.

The present invention generally relates to the method of using corn syrup to improve the inversion properties of water-in-oil (w/o) friction reducing polymers.

A composition and method for reducing the coefficient of friction and required pulling force of a wire or cable are provided. A composition of aqueous emulsion is provided that is environmentally friendly, halogen free and solvent free. The composition is compatible with various types of insulating materials and may be applied after the wire or cable is cooled and also by spraying or submerging the wire or cable in a bath. The composition contains lubricating agents that provide lower coefficient of friction for wire or cable installation and continuous wire or cable surface lubrication thereafter.

The disclosure relates to a biobased metal-working fluid (MWF) composition and method for making same, and more particularly metal-working fluid with biobased lubricants with improved emulsion stability. At least 50 wt. % of the base oil component in the MWF concentrate is a plant-derived liquid decarboxylated rosin acid oil (“DCR”). The DCR comprises 50 to 100 wt. % of tricyclic compounds having 18-20 carbon atoms, one or more C═C groups, and m/z (mass/charge) value of 220-280; an oxygen content of <5%; a density of 0.9 to 1.0 g/cm.sup.3 at 20° C.; and an acid value of <10 mg KOH/g. The resulting MWF is characterized as having comparable if not better performance compared to a MWF containing only mineral oil (e.g., Group I or Group II).

The present invention provides an application of nano copper in a cutting fluid. The nano copper is self-dispersible nano copper with an organic long-carbon chain, wherein the surface of copper metal is coated with a long carbon chain organic matter, and the long chain organic matter is dialkyl dithiophosphoric acid (HDDP) and a derivative thereof. In the present invention, the nano copper substitutes functional additives which comprises one or more of a preservative, an anti-rust agent, a sterilizing agent, a compression-resisting agent and a lubricant to solve the technical problems of the existing fluid in the prior art being unable to simultaneously have efficient anti-corrosion, anti-rust, compression-resistant, lubricating and sterilizing properties as well as the variety, the relatively high amount, the high cost and the limited selection of added additives.
