A process for the preparation of a lubricating grease which comprises (a) dispersing in a major amount of a lubricating oil at about 180.degree. F. to about 200.degree. F. an effective amount of a saponifiable fatty material and lithium base to neutralize the fatty material, (b) then heating the resulting mixture from (a) to about 385.degree. F. to about 410.degree. F. at about ambient pressure to dissolve said fatty material, (c) homogenizing the resulting mixture from (b) at about 80 to about 200 psi while maintaining the temperature, (d) cooling the resulting mixture to a temperature below about 370.degree. F., (e) adding calcium base to the resulting mixture to saponify the remaining (unsaponified) fatty material at about 290.degree. F. to about 360.degree. F. and about ambient pressure, and (f) homogenizing the resulting mixture at about 100 to about 150 psi while maintaining the temperature to obtain a lubricating grease composition. Preferably, the calcium bae in step (e) is substantially dry and is added at a temperature of from about 310.degree. F. to about 360.degree. F.

The oxidation promoting harmful effects of the presence of an alkaline catalyst in a polyoxyalkylene can be eliminated and the product made more resistant to oxidation especially at elevated temperatures by the incorporation therein of soluble salts of certain benzoic acid derivatives. The soluble salts can be formed by reaction with the alkali or alkaline earth metal ion derived from the alkaline catalyst utilized in the polymerization of the polyoxyalkylene.

Antifreeze compositions and a process for inhibiting the corrosion of aluminum in contact with aqueous liquids are disclosed. The antifreeze compositions comprise a combination of an alkanolamine, an alkali metal phosphate, a heterocyclic nitrogen compound, as defined, and a conventional corrosion inhibitor in effective corrosion inhibiting amounts. The aqueous liquid can be an alcohol such as ethylene glycol.

Corrosion inhibited alcohol compositions can be prepared which are suitable for use as anti-freeze compositions in the cooling systems of internal combustion engines. The alcohol is selected from at least one of the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, propylene glycol and glycerol. The corrosion inhibitor comprises an effective amount of a conventional corrosion inhibitor selected from the group consisting of the alkali metal carbonates, borax, the alkali metal dichromates, the alkali metal silicates, phosphorous acid, phosphoric acid, an alkali metal tungstate, benzotriazole, tolyltriazole, an alkali metal salt of benzoic or toluic acid, an alkali metal salt of a phenol, an alkanolamine and an organo-silicone compound in addition to an alkanolamine phosphate and a heterocyclic nitrogen-containing compound. The phosphate is the reaction product of an alkanolamine and phosphoric acid. The heterocyclic nitrogen-containing compound has the formula: ##STR1##

The present invention relates to a method of wave soldering an assembly composed of a plurality of electrical conductors disposed on a surface of a sheet of insulating material. In accordance with this method, the surface of the sheet and the conductors are contacted with a stationary wave of molten solder having a polyether admixed therewith and floating on the surface thereof. The polyether is a heteric or block copolymer of a dihydroxyphenol and at least one lower alkylene oxide. It is preferred that the alkylene oxide contain 2 to 4 carbon atoms. The alkylene oxide may be all ethylene oxide or may be a mixture with other lower alkylene oxides such as propylene oxides and butylene oxides. In any event, the copolymer should contain at least about 20 percent by weight of oxyethylene groups, balance oxypropylene groups and/or oxybutylene groups. A conventional polymeric oxidation inhibitor may also be included.

Anti-static polymeric films, fibers and textile yarn produced by process comprising admixing a branched chain, sulfur-containing polyester with a synthetic film- or fiber-forming polymer, extruding said film or textile fiber, and exposing said film or textile fiber to an aqueous solution containing a polyvalent metal ion reactive with the sulfate groups present in said sulfur-containing polyester. The sulfur-containing polyester is thereby fixed within the synthetic film or fiber and is resistant to extraction by water or commonly used dry cleaning solvents.
