Abstract
The inventive composition comprises compatible combinations of vegetable oils and polar non-chlorine phosphorous-based extreme pressure additives, the composition being either (a) a working strength straight oil, (b) a soluble oil concentrate dilutable to a working strength soluble oil, the composition when at working strength effectively lubricating metal parts during high performance metalworking, and providing environmental and safety advantages.
Claims44
A composition comprising:
- a vegetable oil, and
- a phosphorous-based polar non-chlorine extreme pressure additive,
- the components being compatible, and the composition having a boiling point of at least about 200° C. and effectively lubricating metal parts and imparting a load wear index of at least about 40 in a four ball test and a weld point of at least about 315 kg in a four ball test.
A metalworking fluid comprising a vegetable oil and a non-chlorine extreme pressure additive, the composition having metalworking performance at least equivalent to a mineral oil based chlorinated paraffin metalworking fluid.
A composition comprising:
- a vegetable oil, and a sulfur-based polar non-chlorine extreme pressure additive, the composition effectively lubricating metal parts and imparting a load wear index of at least about 40 in a four ball test and a weld point of at least about 315 kg in a four ball test.
