Abstract
Abstract 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: <IMAGE> wherein R1 is a difunctional aromatic hydrocarbon residue, and A and B each stands for an amino group represented by the general formula (II) of R2-NH-(where R2 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 <IMAGE> (where R3 R4 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 R2 is a cyclohexyl group or a group derived from the cyclohexyl to the numbers of the amino groups (II) wherein R2 is an alkyl group ranges from 174 to 4/1.
