An aqueous lubricant composition, a method for making the same and uses thereof

Abstract

The disclosure concerns an aqueous lubricant composition, characterized in that it comprises of: 50wt % of water, 0.01-20 wt % of a thickening agent, 0.5-10 wt % of an antioxidant; 0.5-5 wt% of a pH regulating agent; and glycerol. There is also provided a method for manufacturing the aqueous lubricant composition, and uses of said aqueous lubricant composition.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a lubricant composition. And in particular, the present disclosure relates to an aqueous lubricant composition and methods for preparing such compositions and uses thereof. Background technique [0002] Contact of a solid surface with an interfacing material results in "abrasion", ie loss of material from the surface. The main types of wear are abrasion, erosion and corrosion. There is usually some degree of friction when two moving bodies come into contact. Excessive friction can lead to power loss and often undesirable contact heating. Due to friction and wear, the economic losses and technical problems caused worldwide every year are significant. Lubrication is a common way to reduce and / or overcome problems related to friction and wear. A large number of lubricant compositions for various purposes exist on the market. [0003] Lubricants usually consist of a base fluid, traditionally mineral oil, and additive...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Other problems associated with vegetable oils are for example low thermal and oxidative stability, narrow viscosity range and poor fluidity at low temperatures

Also, certain parameters that are important in lubricating its composition, such as the amount of friction and wear, may not be good enough
