Definitions

  • the present invention relates to lubricant composition and to a method for lubricating conveyor systems consisting of applying a lubricant composition wherein the active matter concentration of said lubricant composition ranges from 1 to 99% by weight.
  • Said method is particularly preferred in conveyor systems for glass bottles, plastic bottles such as polyethylene terephtalate (PET ⁇ or polycarbonate (PC) bottles, cans, glass containers and cartons containers and similar items.
  • PET ⁇ or PC polycarbonate
  • Said conveyor systems can particularly be found in the foodstuff industry.
  • articulated plate conveyor belts or other transport systems are used. Said systems are maintained lubricated to reduce the mechanical strength of the bottles and containers, and cleaned to remove dirt and to avoid contamination by micro-organisms, with the aid of appropriate aqueous lubricating agents, preferentially applied with automatic lubrication systems for conveyor belts or other transport systems, equipped with a sprayer system.
  • a lubricant concentrated composition is diluted with water to form a lubricant diluted composition (i.e., dilution factors of 2 to 10000, preferably 5 to 1000 by volume) , and copious amounts of lubricant diluted compositions are typically applied to the conveyor systems or containers using spray or pumping equipment on a continuous basis.
  • the lubricant diluted composition can be collected in drip trays, which discharge into drainage systems and then to the effluent plant for disposals.
  • Some lubricant diluted compositions can promote the growth of microorganisms, which has to be prevented by using biocides .
  • the lubricant diluted composition which has been collected in drip trays, has to be treated in the effluent treatment plants before disposal.
  • the presence of biocides may affect the bacteria in the wastewater treatment facilities.
  • “Dry lubricants” have been described as a solution to the disadvantages of the diluted lubricant compositions.
  • a "dry lubricant” historically has referred to a lubricant composition with low water content, preferably less than 50 wt . % , which was applied to a container or conveyor system without dilution.
  • this application typically required special dispensing equipment and nozzles and energized nozzles in particular.
  • Energized nozzles refer to nozzles where the lubricant stream is broken into a spray of fine droplets by the use of energy, which may include high pressures, compressed air, or sonication to deliver the lubricant .
  • Dry lubricants based on silicone materials and/or polymers are very common.
  • silicone is primarily effective at lubricating plastics such as PET bottles, and has been observed to be less effective at lubricating on glass or metal containers, particularly on a metal surface. If a plant is running more than one type of container on a line, the conveyor lubricant will have to be switched before the new type of container can be run. Alternatively, if a plant is running different types of containers on different lines, the plant will have to stock more than one type of conveyor lubricant . Both scenarios are time consuming and inefficient for the plant.
  • silicone materials and certain polymers are not biodegradable and may contaminate the effluents.
  • Said International patent application describes both concentrated and diluted lubricant compositions, which are obtained by diluting the previous lubricant concentrated compositions. Furthermore, said international patent application also describes a method for lubricating conveyor systems consisting in applying a lubricant diluted composition (0.03% by weight) obtained by diluting the lubricant concentrated composition described above to a conveyor system. The use of the lubricant diluted composition for lubricating conveyor systems is also described.
  • Said dilution can be carried out either directly in one step or through intermediate partially diluted compositions, i.e. starting from a concentrate, diluting it by a factor of 2 to 100, and finally diluting it again to the desirable final concentration. This procedure is commonly used to avoid transport and storage of highly diluted compositions.
  • the lubricant compositions described in the International patent application PCT/EP2007/002772 if applied directly or in the form of partially diluted compositions, wherein the active matter concentration of the lubricant composition ranging from 1 to 99% by weight, to conveyor systems, not only provide appropriate lubricant properties, but also provide an efficient solution to the problems mentioned before: said composition can generally be applied without further dilution or slightly diluted with water or diluted with a solvent other than water with standard application equipments (i.e. non-energized nozzles), their use may result in drier lubrication of the conveyor systems and drier conveyor line and working area, reduced lubricant usage, reduced waste, cleanup and disposal problems, and possibly avoiding dilution problems.
  • said lubricant compositions have generally a better ecotoxi ⁇ ological profile than existing concentrated (dry) lubricant compositions based on silicone materials and/or polymers.
