This invention relates to a filling grease composition for automobile wire harness connector which comprises a petroleum oil having an initial boiling point of 400.degree. C. or more and a gelling agent having the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R is a divalent aromatic group represented by a member: ##STR2## as essential components, and the content of said gelling agent ranging from 5 to 50% by weight on the basis of the whole composition.

Filling grease composition for automobile wire harness connector

A diurea grease composition contains a base oil and 2 to 25 wt.%, based on the total weight of the composition, of a diurea compound, the diurea grease compound being produced by reacting a mixed system of two or more different diisocyanates represented by the formula (I) OCN--R--NCO wherein R stands for a straight-chained or branched alkylene group, a straight-chained or branched alkenylene group, a cycloalkylene group or an aromatic group, with an amine compound selected from the group consisting of a primary amine represented by the formula (II) R.sub.1 --NH.sub.2 wherein R.sub.1 stands for a hydrocarbon residue having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, a secondary amine represented by the formula (III) ##STR1## wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 each stand for hydrocarbon residues having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, and mixtures thereof.

Diurea grease composition

A grease composition comprises a base oil selected from the group consisting of mineral lubricant base oils, synthetic lubricant base oils and mixtures thereof, (A) 2 to 25 wt %, based on the total weight of the composition, of a thickener selected from the group consisting of urea compounds, urea-urethane compounds, urethane compounds and mixtures thereof and (B) 0.2 to 5.0 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of an ingredient selected from the group consisting of oxidized paraffins, diphenylhydrogen phosphite, hexamethyl phosphoric triamide and mixtures thereof.

Grease composition containing urea, urea-urethane, or urethane thickeners

A urea-urethane grease composition contains, as essential ingredients, a thickener and a lubricant base oil. The thickener contains a urea-urethane mixture having a composition including 20 to 99, mol. % of a diurea compound represented by the general formula (I) of ##STR1## 4 to 30 mol. % of a urea-urethane compound represented by the general formula (II) of ##STR2## and 1 to 50 mol. % of a diurethane compound represented by the general formula (III) of ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1 represents a difunctional aromatic hydrocarbon residue having 6 to 15 carbon atoms, R.sub.2 a cyclohexyl group or a group derived from cyclohexyl and having 7 to 12 carbon atoms and R.sub.3 an alkyl group or an alkenyl group having 8 to 20 carbon atoms. The ratio of the numbers of amino groups R.sub.2 --NH-- to those of alkoxy groups R.sub.3 --O-- in the mixture being 95/5 to 40/60. The thickener is contained in an amount of 2 to 25 wt. % based on the total weight of the grease composition.

Urea-urethane grease composition

A dilurea grease composition contains a lubricant base oil and a thickener. The thickener essentially consists of a mixture of at least two diurea compounds each being represented by the following general formula (I) of: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is a difunctional aromatic hydrocarbon residue, and A and B each stands for an amino group represented by the general formula (II) of R.sub.2 --NH--(where R.sub.2 stands for a cyclohexyl group, a group derived from cyclohexyl or an alkyl group) or an amino group represented by the general formula (III) of ##STR2## (where R.sub.3 R.sub.4 each stands for cyclohexyl group or a group derived from cyclohexyl). The ratio in percentage of the numbers of the amino groups (III) to the total numbers of the amino groups (III) plus the amino groups (II) ranges from 1 to 50%. The ratio of the numbers of the amino groups (II) wherein R.sub.2 is a cyclohexyl group or a group derived from the cyclohexyl to the numbers of the amino groups (II) wherein R.sub.2 is an alkyl group ranges from 174 to 4/1.

Lubricant

There is disclosed a lubricant the major portion of which is composed of Duomeen-T-dioleate. It may be associated with a diamide compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is a C.sub.2-4 alkylene radical and R.sup.2 is a C.sub.14-18 alkyl or alkenyl radical, or with various kinds of thickeners and/or waxes. The resulting lubricant has superior performance when applied to a metal-metal, metal-plastics or plastics-plastics sliding surface.

Grease compositions comprising (A) a specific polyoxypropylene glycol monoether as the lubricating base oil and (B) a specific gelling agent as the thickening agent, consisting of at least one diurea compound represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is a divalent aromatic hydrocarbon radical, and R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 a cyclohexyl group, a cyclohexyl derivative group having 7-12 carbon atoms, or an alkyl group having 8-20 carbon atoms.
