Preface To The Second Edition- The exhaustion within a comparatively short time of the first edition of A Practical Treatise on Friction, Lubrication, Fats and Oils and the constant demand for it, are the best evidence that it h...
- Preface To The First Edition
- From observation during a period of nearly fifty years as a practical Chemist and Manufacturer of Chemical Products and all kinds of Oils, and my close connection with Engineers and Manufacturers, and...
- I. Friction
- The force which is felt to resist the motion when one body rubs against another while in motion is called friction. Of all mechanical power used, a large amount is spent or lost to overcome the obstru...
- II. Lubrication
- To overcome friction and put its resisting power to as low a point as possible, we use lubricants that can absorb the frictional heat and, becoming vaporized by it, will carry the heat into space. ...
- III. Oils And Fats
- The next question arises: What are oils and what is fatty matter? What are the characteristics, and from what sources of nature do they come, and how are they obtained? Oils are liquid and semi-sol...
- IV. Oils And Fats Of Animal And Vegetable. Origin, Their Characteristics And How They Are Obtained
- Lard And Lard Oil Lard is the prepared fat of the hog. The fat freed from membranous matter is cut up into small pieces and boiled with water. It is then carefully separated from the water and melt...
- Spermaceti And Fish Oils
- Spermaceti The cavities in the upper part of the head of the sperm whale contain an oily liquid, which, after the death of the animal, concretes into a white, spongy mass, consisting of spermaceti ...
- Whale and Train Oils
- These include cod-liver oil, tanner's cod oil from different fish, menhaden oil, porpoise oil, shark oil and whale oil. The whale and train oils are obtained from the blubber of various species of ...

- Sesame Or Gingelly Oil Obtained from the seeds of Sesamum Jndicum of India and from the seeds of the plant cultivated in southern Europe and the Orient. The seeds furnish from 40 to 50 per cent ...
- Whale and Train Oils. Part 3
- Peanut Oil Peanut oil is obtained from the kernels of the peanut. They yield by pressure from thirty to forty per cent of an oil of a light yellowish, almost white, color, and of an agreeable, part...

- Transparent Soft Soap In The Semi-Warm Way Bring into the kettle 100 parts linseed oil or 60 parts linseed oil and 40 parts cotton oil, together with 10 parts rosin, and heat. When the rosin is mel...
- V. Clarifying, Refining And Bleaching Oils And Fats
- The clarifying and bleaching process must necessarily vary, as some oils may be more or less colored or mixed with impurities than others. The animal oils and fats require bleaching or clarifying only...
- VI. Mineral Oils
- These oils are obtained by distillation from Scotch shale, a black, somewhat flaky mass of homogeneous structure, with an irregular, glossy surface. It is usually soft enough to be cut, and when ignit...
- Tar Oils
- Tar oils are obtained from tar, being the result of the destructive distillation of wood and bituminous coal. Wood is distilled in iron retorts and in covered heaps or pits to obtain thereby the re...
- VII. Petroleum Oils
- Wherever and however nature carries on its mysterious process of producing the various grades of petroleum found all over the globe, the lighter and the heavier grades, the brighter and the darker col...
- Distillation of Petroleum
- When crude petroleum is subjected to distillation and the uncondensable gases and moisture have gone over, a series of light hydrocarbon compounds known as benzine are first obtained, about 15 per c...
- VIII. Manufacture Of Lubricating Oils
- The manufacture or compounding of lubricants is manifold. For cylinder oils, mineral or petroleum oils of a specific gravity of about 27 Baume and a fire test of about 550 F., either alone o...
- IX. "Valve-Oleum" Oils
- The fatty oils and fats are composed of either oleic, margaric or palmitic and stearic acids, which, when treated with caustic soda, form compounds soluble in water. Precipitated with mineral salts, s...
- IX. "Valve-Oleum" Oils. Continued
- For Valve-Oleum cylinder oil, a barrel of cylinder stock and from 40 to 50 gallons of degras are used at the boiling with the compound, if the cylinder stock to be used is of a reasonable cold test,...
- X. Leather Oils
- Leather belts, harness, boot and shoe leather require as much attention in regard to lubrication as does machinery. Hides, when deprived of their natural lubricating moisture, become dry and easily br...
- XI. Adulterations Of Fatty Oils
- When the market price of lard oil is high and that of cottonseed oil is low, the former is often adulterated with the latter. It is also adulterated with petroleum oils, especially prepared for that p...
- XII. Testing Oils
- Alkali tests are made to ascertain first if an oil is a pure fatty oil, or a hydrocarbon oil, or a mixture of both. A solution of caustic soda or potash of a specific gravity of 1.340 is prepared and ...
- XII. Testing Oils. Continued
- The intermixing of fatty oils for purposes of adulteration, when the one oil can be bought in the market at lower price than the other, is not very detrimental in their use for manufacturing purposes,...
- XIII. Solid Lubricants. Greases
- Solid lubricants consist principally of filtered stock or vaseline, and they are fed to the bearings through cups especially devised for that purpose, and furnished with screw pressure, or provided wi...
- Manufacture of Greases
- Most greases for lubricating are made in the following manner: Common red rosin oil, say five hundred pounds, is heated for about one hour with about two pounds of calcium hydrate. It is then allowed ...
- XIV. Some Practical Suggestions
- When a cylinder becomes partly worn, or ridges and scars are cut on its bright surfaces, or a partial wearing of the piston rod takes place, it is absurd to lay such results to the oil. Oil cannot cut...
- XV. Lubricators And Cups
- The many contrivances commonly called lubricators, by which lubricants are applied to machinery, are often much trouble to engineers, as the adoption of these contrivances is, with many, as much a c...
- XVI. Specific Gravity
- Weight is the measure of gravity. The specific gravity of any body is the proportion which the weight of a certain amount of that body bears to the same amount of another body which is taken as standa...
- XVII. Review Of The Petroleum Oil Industry To 1915
- Looking over the history of the petroleum industry during the last decade there appears little to be recorded as new. The text books on the subject consist of products of compilations of facts long kn...
