Die Casting LubricantsFire-resistant Hydraulic Fluids

Liquid Paraffin

Die casting is a casting process
performed by forcing molten metals
under high pressure into mold cavities
and solidified. Die casting lubricants are
required to perform parting for hightemperature metals and molds.

Fire-resistant hydraulic fluids areapplied in hydraulic facilities where
there are high risks of fire due to theuse of high temperature metals inindustries including the steel andautomobile industries.

Liquid paraffin has a wide range ofapplications including as raw materials
for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals,
food packaging, and polystyrene resin,due to its transparency, tastelessness
and odorlessness, safety, moisturizing
and bacteriostatic properties, and highchemical inertness.

Cutting Fluids

Lubricants for Hot Forging

Cutting fluids are used when cutting
metal parts. Cutting fluids reduce
friction that occur during processing
and elongates the tool life span.

Forging is a processing method wheremetal materials are compressed
between molds and formed into a
desired shape. Lubricants for hot
forging are lubricants that are required
when manufacturing engine parts andsafety components for automobiles.

High Temperature Lubricating Oils

Hot Melt Adhesives

Base oil for bearing grease that rises
to high temperatures in electricalcomponents for automobiles. These
items are applied in harshenvironments as bearings for OA
devices as well as lubricants forbaking ovens and driving units fordrying furnaces.

Hot melt adhesives are applied when
attaching vehicle bodies with parts foreach part of automobile interior. Does
not include volatile organic
compounds that affect the environment

In the die casting production process, diecasting lubricants are applied in order to easily
remove the product from the die casting.
Generally, die casting lubricants are diluted
several ten to several hundred times for use, but
at MORESCO, water-soluble minimum quantity
spray type that is applied optimal amount wasdeveloped, and is available commercially. The
amount applied is approximately 1/100 andthere is essentially zero liquid waste that drips
from the die casting machine. Up toapproximately 30% of dummy trials can be

hot melt adhesives that do not use organic
solvents are environment-friendly adhesives.
Currently, in addition to pursuing a techniquethat can eliminate remaining solvents (under

UF membrane treatment is a physical treatment
method that separates and filters wastewater such as
oil and water with membranes (UF membrane) thathave microscopic holes instead of chemical treatment
applying conventional wastewater treatment agents.
Since energy for its operation requires only power forthe pump that delivers wastewater to the membrane,
the unit possesses high energy-saving properties.
Also, since the unit is fully automatic and does not
require adjustment and chemical management forconcentration fluctuation of wastewater, it can help
achieve labor saving at the plant. In addition to
reduction of environmental load, the unit is effective in
reducing load on personnel, and contributes greatly
to improving laborer shortage in the modern world.

We deliver products that live up to customer expectations through our quality assurance
activities based on our quality policies. We will achieve the high quality by creating aquality assurance system that requires all our staff to think and act together.
