OIL-IN-WATER OR WATER-IN-OIL EMULSION BASED ON VEGETABLE OILS AS MECHANICAL LUBRICANT

摘要

The present invention relates to the use of a water-in-oil (w/o) or oil-in-water (o/w) emulsion composed of an oily phase comprising one or more crude or refined oils of vegetable origin, at least one nonionic and/or anionic emulsifying surfactant, and a aqueous phase comprising at least one phyllosilicate, as lubricant for a mechanical device, characterized in that the water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion is fluid at ordinary temperature.
