Abstract
Abstract Water soluble mixed ester lubricants derived from triglycerides are obtained by transesterifying a triglyceride with a low molecular weight polyoxyethylene glycol in the presence of short-chain mono- or dicarboxylic acids. The mixed ester compositions of this invention are readily water soluble and are excellent lubricants for metalworking operations. Water solubility is achieved with the present mixed ester products even though they have higher triglyceride contents than previously known ester lubricants.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
116 words
An aqueous lubricating composition comprising an aqueous solution of a water soluble mixed ester product obtained by the single-step transesterification of: a. a triglyceride selected from the group consisting of animal oils, animal fats, drying vegetable oils, semi-drying vegetable oils and non-drying vegetable oils; b. a polyoxyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of from about 400 to 800; and c. a hydrocarbyl carboxylic acid containing one or two carboxyl groups and from 2 to 12 carbon atoms; said reactants (a), (b) and (c) respectively comprising 5 to 35%, 60 to 85% and 1 to 20by weight of the total charge, said solution being clear at room temperature but having a distinct cloud point above 95°F.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
116 words
An aqueous lubricating composition comprising an aqueous solution of a water soluble mixed ester product obtained by the single-step transesterification of: a. a triglyceride selected from the group consisting of animal oils, animal fats, drying vegetable oils, semi-drying vegetable oils and non-drying vegetable oils; b. a polyoxyethylene glycol having an average molecular weight of from about 400 to 800; and c. a hydrocarbyl carboxylic acid containing one or two carboxyl groups and from 2 to 12 carbon atoms; said reactants (a), (b) and (c) respectively comprising 5 to 35%, 60 to 85% and 1 to 20by weight of the total charge, said solution being clear at room temperature but having a distinct cloud point above 95°F.
