Summary: | Lubricant compositions based on a biodegradable base oil, such as a polyol ester or polyalkylene glycol, a calcium sulfonate based thickener and a naturally occurring phospholipid as an anti-wear additive, such as lecithin for environmentally sensitive applications and when having a specific gravity greater than 1.0 at 60° F. (15.6° C.) for marine applications are provided. The thickener may include a linear alkybenzene sulfonic acid, acetic acid and 12 hydroxystearic acid and a calcium carbonate solid film lubricant. The lubricant submerges when dispensed on water avoiding formations of a surface sheen and biodegrades when submerged resulting in a water ecology friendly lubricant. |
