Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A lubricant that enables to improve control stability of an automobile or the like having a vehicle body charged by driving. A lubricant for improving control stability of an automobile includes a base oil and an additive containing a carbon black. A kit for improving control stability of an automobile includes a discharging member including a protrusion that performs a self-discharging by air-ionizing and the lubricant. A method also improves control stability of an automobile.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A lubricant for improving control stability of an automobile, comprising: one or more base oils selected from the group consisting of a mineral oil, a hydrocarbon synthetic oil, a phenyl ether synthetic oil, an ester synthetic oil, a polyglycol synthetic oil, and a silicone oil; polytetrafluoroethylene having a particle size greater than 1 μm; a thickener being a diurea, and an additive containing a carbon black, wherein the lubricant is in a form of a grease composition. 2. A kit for improving control stability of an automobile, comprising: a discharging member including a protrusion that performs a self-discharging by air-ionizing; and the lubricant according to claim 1 . 3. A method for improving control stability of an automobile, comprising a step of applying the lubricant according to claim 1 to a sliding portion of an automobile, wherein the improvement of control stability of the automobile is measured by a method comprising the measurement of steering angle or automobile yaw angle acceleration. 4. The method according to claim 3 , further comprising a step of disposing a discharging member including a protrusion that performs a self-discharging by air-ionizing on a vehicle body of an automobile. 5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the sliding portion is an axle shaft rolling bearing. 6. The lubricant according to claim 1 , wherein the base oil is a paraffin mineral oil. 7. The lubricant according to claim 1 , wherein the base oil is a hydrocarbon synthetic oil containing a poly-α-olefin oil using 1-decene as a starting material and a co-oligomer oil of α-olefin and ethylene. 8. The lubricant according to claim 1 , wherein the polytetrafluoroethylene has a particle size of greater than 1 μm and 15 μm or less. 9. The lubricant according to claim 1 , wherein the polytetrafluoroethylene has a particle size of from 5 to 15 μm.
