LUBRICATING COMPOSITIONS (well drilling compositions C09K8/02); USE OF CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES EITHER ALONE OR AS LUBRICATING INGREDIENTS IN A LUBRICATING COMPOSITION (mould release, i.e. separating, agents for metals B22C3/00, for plastics or substances in a plastic state, in general B29C33/56, for glass C03B40/02; textile lubricating compositions D06M11/00, D06M13/00, D06M15/00; immersion oils for microscopy G02B21/33)

Introduced: September 1968

Description

C10M covers lubricating compositions and individual chemical substances used as lubricants or lubricating additives. This includes formulated oils, greases, and other lubricant products, as well as specific chemical compounds (such as base oils, viscosity modifiers, anti-wear agents, detergents, and corrosion inhibitors) employed in lubricating applications. The subclass addresses both the composition of finished lubricating products and the functional role of chemical ingredients within those compositions.
