Claim 2
Dependent Claim
29 words
In an aqueous water-soluble soap lubricant concentrate, the improvement comprising the inclusion therein of neodecanoic acid in amount from about 0.1 to 50.0 percent by weight of said concentrate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
52 words
An aqueous water-soluble soap lubricant concentrate comprising 2 to 40 percent by weight water-soluble fatty acid soap, about 0 to 15 percent by weight chelating agent, about 0 to 45 percent by weight surfactant, from 20 to 80 percent by weight water, and about 0.1 to 50.0 percent by weight neodecanoic acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
52 words
An aqueous water-soluble soap lubricant concentrate comprising 2 to 40 percent by weight water-soluble fatty acid soap, about 0 to 15 percent by weight chelating agent, about 0 to 45 percent by weight surfactant, from 20 to 80 percent by weight water, and about 0.1 to 50.0 percent by weight neodecanoic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
12 words
The concentrate of claim 2 wherein said concentrate contains a chelating agent.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
11 words
The concentrate of claim 3 wherein said concentrate includes a surfactant.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
62 words
The concentrate of claim 2 wherein the fatty acid soap is obtained by incorporating in said concentrate a fatty acid in an amount from about 2 to 30 weight percent along with an agent selected from the group consisting of alkali metal hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, and alkanolamines in amounts sufficient to react with the fatty acid to produce the fatty acid soap.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
68 words
The concentrate of claim 5 wherein said fatty acid is tall oil fatty acid, said agent to react with the fatty acid is potassium hydroxide, said chelating agent is tetrasodium salt of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid, and said surface active agent is an oxyalkylated fatty alcohol from 22 percent by weight C 12-15 fatty alcohol, 47 percent by weight ethylene oxide and 31 percent by weight propylene oxide.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
28 words
