Patent ID: 8425923

Claim:
A glycol-in-silicone emulsion lubricant composition comprising a discontinuous substantially anhydrous phase dispersed in a continuous oil phase, wherein said phases are mixed and homogenized, wherein the discontinuous substantially anhydrous phase comprises less than 20 percent by weight of water, wherein the continuous oil phase comprises a linear silicone polyether, wherein the linear silicone polyether has a structure selected from the group consisting of (a) a rake type structure wherein the polyoxyethylene or polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene copolymeric units are grafted onto a siloxane backbone, and (b) an ABA block copolymeric structure wherein A represents the polyether portion and B represents the siloxane portion of an ABA structure; wherein the continuous oil phase further comprising silicone fluids; and wherein the discontinuous substantially anhydrous phase further comprising two polyols, wherein the first polyol is selected from the group consisting of glycerine and propylene glycol and the second polyol is polyethylene glycol, at least one salt and at least one coemulsifier wherein said composition has a lubricity of at least about 33 wherein the discontinuous substantially anhydrous phase comprises less than about 5% water by weight of the composition.
