Industrial lubricants

The properties sought for these products depend on the type of application it is useful to distinguish motor oil from industrial lubricants. 

Owing to the large number of types of industrial lubricants, the number of constraints, and therefore the number of desired properties, is very large. The main industrial oils are summarized in Tables 6.4 and 6.5, the first giving the constraints common to all applications, and the second addressing the more specific requirements. A few essential properties appear from these tables ... 

Film stability is a primary concern for applications. LB films of photopoly-merizable polymeric amphiphiles can be made to crosslink under UV radiation to greatly enhance their thermal stability while retaining the ordered layered structure [178]. Low-molecular-weight perfluoropolyethers are important industrial lubricants for computer disk heads. These small polymers attached to a polar head form continuous films of uniform thickness on LB deposi-... 

South America and Africa also have about 4% of the industrial lubricant market. 

Crambe was introduced to the United States in the 1970s. It is an oilseed, the oil of which is very high in emcic acid [112-86-7] (13-docosanoic acid), C22H42O2. This oil can be used to provide industrial lubricants, especially those needed for the basic oxygen furnace process for making steel (qv). Crambe is grown in relatively small volume in the midwestem United States.

Another example would be the use of naphthenic oils in the formulation of compressor lubricants, textile processing oils, and other industrial lubricants. In these formulations, solubilizing and dispersing compounds within an oil is quite important. 

Kim B. Peyton began his career in the petroleum industry in 1978. During the past 23 years, he has worked in the development of synthetic fuels from coal and shale oil, the manufacture and quality assurance of automotive and diesel engine oils, the development of industrial lubricants, the evaluation and development of fuel and lubricant additives, and in providing a diverse range of technical support services to customers. 

Though ihe major portion of industrial lubricants is derived from petroleum, a small but significant portion is heing obtained from other sources. 

R O—rust- and-oxidation inhibited. A term applied to highly refined industrial lubricating oils formulated for long service in circulating systems, compressors, hydraulic systems, bearing housing, gear cases, etc. The finest R O oils are often referred to as turbine... 

When my second baby was seven months old, I sent my breast milk halfway around the world to get it tested for pollutants. The Europeans are better than we in this, as in so many things. The Swedes are basically connoisseurs of breast milk. They were the ones who discovered PCBs (a toxic industrial lubricant) in human milk in the 1960s. Always a little late on the safety trends, the United States banned the chemicals a decade later. 

Some applications of the synthetic fluids are motor oil, trucks, marine diesel, transmissions and industrial lubricants, aviation and aerospace lubricants, fire-resistant fluids, and greases. Specifications for several military lubricants can be met only by a synthetic product. All commercial and military jet aircraft engines use synthetic lubricants, in addition to the space shuttle, NASA, and nuclear submarines.

Is used as a component in hand creams and other cosmetic formulations. This versatile ester is also a component for industrial lubricants and lubricant softeners for textiles. 

Can be used as a very low HLB emulsifier with high oil solubility. Applications in water-in-oil emulsions or industrial lubricants are suggested. 

A hydrophilic emulsifier, functions as a co-emulsifier for petroleum oils, fats, solvents and waxes in household products, industrial lubricants and textile dye carriers. It is also used as a dispersant for pigments in coatings, a solubilizer for oils and fragrances, and as an emulsifier for aliphatic alcohols in tobacco sucker control concentrates. 

An effective 0/W emulsifier and lubricant, is used with mineral and vegetable oils in the formulation of industrial lubricants. Textile oils emulsified with EMSORB 6901 yield excellent lubricants and softeners for fibers and yarns. 

Is a waxy emusllfier for oils and fats in industrial lubricants. It imparts softening and lubricating properties to textiles and leather. TRYDET 2636 is very similar to TRYDET 2670, but has better water dispersibility. 

Functions as an emulsifier of oils and fats in the manufacture of fluid or paste emulsions for industrial lubricants, consumer products, and textile lubricants and softeners. This waxy lipophilic surfactant is also used as a thickening agent and stabilizer for starch coatings on paper, and as a water dispersible paper size. EMEREST 2640 is also a good lubricant for channeling wire through conduit. 

Is a lipophilic liquid emulsifier and solubilizer for mineral oils, fats, and solvents. A prime application for EMEREST 2648 is the emulsification of kerosene in agricultural and pesticide sprays. EMEREST 2648 is also used in the emulsification of latex paints, metalworking fluids, solvents, and specialty and industrial lubricants. 

Functions as a co-emulsifier for silicone in cleaner polishes and mold release agents, and as an all purpose oil and fat emulsifier in industrial lubricants. For textile applications, this biodegradable, oil-soluble, water-dispersible ether is used as an emulsifier for mineral oil in lubricants such as coning oils. When sulfated, it forms a high-foaming anionic surfactant. 

A low foaming emulsifier for organic solvents, can also be used as an emulsifier for paraffin oils in industrial lubricants. Its balanced solubility properties make it useful in various systems and in some instances can be used as the primary emulsifier.
