Description
- The present invention relates to a non-staining lubricating composition for use in metal working machines and to a process for rolling stainless steel, copper, copper alloys, aluminium and aluminium alloys.
- Lubricating compositions are used in various machines like mills, in which they serve to lubricate metal parts which are in contact and have a relative movement, like for instance bearings.
- When used in mills, the lubricating compositions sometimes come into contact with the rolled metal, which usually leads to metal staining and in some instances causes the rolled metal sheets to stick together.
- International patent application n° WO 91/06619 discloses the use of a composition comprising a saturated aliphatic monohydric alcohol having from 14 to 18 carbon atoms and optionally a polybutene, petroleum jelly or butyl stearate, as a solid lubricant in the cold working of a metal workpiece.
- It has also been proposed in British patent applications No. 964,268 and No. 1,109,304, US patents No. 4,488,979, No. 4,228,217, No. 2,899,390, and No. 2,621,159 to use polyisobutenes as alternatives to mineral oils in metal working, where staining must be avoided.
- However, these compositions or compounds do not have satisfactory viscosity-shearing characteristics (the viscosity being highly influenced by the shearing rate but decreasing sharply at a given value of the shearing rate) and/or non-sticking properties.
- The invention therefore provides a non-staining lubricating composition having high non-staining properties whilst having high lubricity and non-sticking properties.
- Thus, the invention provides a non-staining lubricating composition comprising, based on the total weight of the composition, from 1 to 99,5%, preferably from 70 to 99%, of a benzene alkylate.
- The invention further provides a process for preparing the non-staining lubricating composition of the invention.
- The invention also provides a process for lubricating the moving or turning metal parts of a stainless steel, copper, copper alloys, aluminium and aluminium alloys rolling mill, comprising applying an effective amount of the composition of the invention to said moving or turning parts.
- In addition, the invention provides the use of the non-staining lubricating composition of the invention to lubricate the moving or turning parts of a stainless steel, copper, copper alloys, aluminium and aluminium alloys rolling mill.
