CPC Definition - Subclass C10M
This place covers:
- Lubricant, i.e. a substance introduced to reduce friction between moving surfaces, which may be in the liquid, gaseous or solid form. The lubricating composition may be an emulsion, an aerosol, a grease, a dispersion of solid lubricants, a multi layer coating or composite material.
- Use of at least one compound as a lubricant or in a lubricating composition
- Working-up of used lubricants to recover useful products.
- Special method of preparation of lubricating oil compositions. Chemical after treatment of components or the whole composition.
Lubricating compositions may have three types of essential ingredients: Base-Materials (main ingredient of the lubricating composition), Thickeners (used for preparing grease compositions) and Additives.
The total concentration of additives is normally up to 10 wt.% based on the whole amount of the lubricating composition. Exception may be found with viscosity-index improvers. The additives are used to enhance the performance characteristics of the base oil.
The mechanical aspect of the lubrication conditions, places, apparatuses where the lubrication takes place are classified in section F of the European Patent Classification

When only the base material(s) is(are) essential, C10M 101/00-C10M 111/00 are to be considered. When only the thickener(s) is(are) essential, C10M 113/00-C10M 123/00 are relevant. Compositions comprising essential additive(s) are in C10M 125/00-C10M 167/00. Mixtures of base-materials, thickeners and additives (at least two of them being essential) are covered by C10M 169/00. Compositions characterized by physical properties should be classified in C10M 171/00. Aqueous compositions (more than 10% water) are in C10M 173/00. Working-up of used lubricants is found in C10M 175/00. Preparation or after-treatment is covered by C10M 177/00.
C10M is used to classify each component of the compositions, whether they are essential or not. Each of the components of the mixtures covered by C10M 111/00, C10M 123/00, C10M 141/00, C10M 157/00, C10M 161/00, C10M 163/00, C10M 165/00, C10M 167/00, C10M 169/00 should be classified by using the corresponding symbol.

Combinations of symbols chosen from C10M, C10N are used in a C-set for classifying well-defined polymers. A polymer of ethylene and acrylate may be classified with C10M 2205/022, C10M 2209/084, using the alphanumerical order.
Combinations of symbols chosen from C10M, C10N are used in a C-set for classifying a specific ingredient having a specific parameter. A Group III base oil (base oil having a viscosity index of 120 or more and comprising 0.03 % or less sulfur and 90% or more saturates) is classified with C10M 2203/1025, C10N 2020/02.
A specific salt may be indexed by using a combination of symbols chosen from C10M, C10N in a C-set. A neutral calcium sulfonate is classified with C10M 2219/044, C10N 2010/04.
C10N is based on the IPC scheme C10N and contains more details. Subclass C10N is an indexing subclass associated with this subclass, and is for indexing features that are of interest in disclosures classified in this subclass, e.g. properties, uses or special modifications of lubricating compositions.
