Class 508
SOLID ANTI-FRICTION DEVICES, MATERIALS THEREFOR, LUBRICANT OR
SEPARANT COMPOSITIONS FOR MOVING SOLID SURFACES, AND
MISCELLANEOUS MINERAL OIL COMPOSITIONS
Class Definition:
This class is an integral part of Class 252, as shown by the
position of the box identifying this class in the Class 252
schedule. As such, this class is subject to the Class
Definition and Notes of Class 252.
A. GENERAL STATEMENT
Patents which contain a claim to a lubricant composition are
placed in this Class as original patents, and are
cross-referenced wherever necessary or desirable. Patents
which disclose the use of claimed compositions as lubricants,
and recite no claims to a use provided for elsewhere, are
similarly classified in this Class. If no composition claims
limited to a specific use are recited, and plural utilities
are disclosed, or if composition claims to plural utilities
are recited, reference should be made to the superiority
listing in the (5) note of the Class 252 Definition to
determine the original classification of the patent.
This class provides for:
(1) compositions of matter which are solid antifriction
devices or articles described in terms of their chemical
composition,
(2) materials from which said solid antifriction devices or
articles are fashioned,
(3) compositions which serve as lubricants or separants for
moving solid surfaces,
(4) compositions of mineral oils admixed with non-hydrocarbon
materials and not limited to a function or utility provided
for elsewhere in Class 252 or any other class.
B. DETAILED STATEMENT
(1) The solid antifriction devices or articles described in
terms of their chemical composition are characterized by
having a lubricant material as a permanent part of the
article or device. This permanence may be accomplished by
permanent coating, impregnation into the interstices of the
article or device, or by being part of the composition of
matter from which the article or device is fashioned. The
articles and devices are further characterized by retention
of their shape during use.
The type of solid antifriction article or device provided for
herein is exemplified by: bearings, rings, seals, journal
boxes, bushings, brakes, clutches, gun wads, or liners for
bearings, brakes or clutches.
Any processes of making such solid antifriction articles or
devices, or peculiar to making such articles or devices, for
which there is no provision elsewhere are provided for
herein.
Mere or nominal use of such solid antifriction articles or
devices as lubricating elements is provided for herein, if
there is no provision elsewhere.
(2) The discussion of solid antifriction articles and devices
in the Detailed Statement, paragraph 1, supra, is generally
applicable also to the materials from which these articles
and devices are fashioned.
The materials provided for herein from which said solid
antifriction articles or devices are made are the aggregate
materials, not individual components of the materials or
anything less than the entirety of the material suitable to
be fashioned into said article or device.
(3) The lubricant or separant compositions for moving solid
surfaces provided for herein may be liquid, plastic, or
fluent compositions specialized and designed for use between
two relatively moving surfaces and in contact therewith for
reducing friction therebetween or preventing said surfaces
from contacting each other. The compositions must include at
least one component that is not a hydrocarbon (except if the
hydrocarbon is a solid synthetic polymer).
Any process of making such compositions, or peculiar to
making such compositions, for which there is no provision
elsewhere is provided for herein.
(4) This class is the generic home for mineral oils admixed
with non-hydrocarbon materials and not limited to a function
or utility provided for elsewhere in Class 252 or any other
class. Examples of such compositions are mineral oils mixed
with antioxidants, corrosion inhibitors, gum inhibitors,
stabilizers, etc.
(1) Note. Components of compositions, if described purely in
functional terms such as "antioxidant," "VI improver," etc.,
will not be considered as determinative of classification. In
other words, one should not classify a claim in a particular
subclass of this class by referring to the specification for
the chemical structure identity of a component described in
the claims in purely functional language. If the claims of a
patent are devoid of chemical structure for the components of
a composition, the original classification of the patent will
be subclass 200 or subclass 220, assuming that the patent
claims are not provided for in another class or classes.
(2) Note. Mere or nominal methods of use of a chemical
compound as a lubricant or separant within the meaning of the
class definition are classified in this class.
(3) Note. When the term "hydrocarbon" is used in this class,
it means an organic compound which consists exclusively of
carbon and hydrogen.
(4) Note. When a component of a composition classified in
this Class (508) is of indeterminate chemical structure, the
following principles shall apply to the classification
thereof:
(a) a number of subclasses herein provide for components of
a composition described in terms of their being reaction
products of indeterminate structure derived from the reaction
of a particular type compound of known structure.
(b) a composition component of indeterminate structure that
can not be classified as described in (a), supra, shall be
classified by considering two additional possible methods for
classifying it and employing the one which results in the
highest classification in the class. The two methods are: (1)
Classify according to a partial structure known to be part of
the component. (2) Classify based on a reactant utilized to
make the component, and place in the highest reactant
classification, with priority given to organic reactants. If
no organic reactants are used, classify based on the highest
inorganic reactant classification.
LINES WITH OTHER CLASSES AND WITHIN THIS CLASS
(1) Note. When the expression "organic compound" is used in
this class, it means a compound which meets the requirements
of the Class 260 class definition, i.e., the molecule is
characterized by two carbons bonded together, one atom of
carbon bonded to at least one atom of hydrogen or halogen, or
one atom of carbon bonded to at least one atom of nitrogen by
a single or double bond. Certain compounds are exceptions to
this rule, i.e., HCN, CN-CN, HNCO, HNCS, cyanogen halides,
cyanamide, fulminic acid and metal carbides. Said exceptions
and all other chemical compounds shall be regarded as
inorganic.
(2) Note. The organic chemical structure terminology used in
this class is consistent with that used in the Glossary for
the Class 532 - Organic Compounds - part of the Class 532-570
Series (Published May 22, 1984 in Addendum No. 1-Order No.
946) except as otherwise noted.
(3) Note. The rules for determining Class placement of the
Original Reference (OR) for claimed chemical compositions are
set forth in the Class Definition of Class 252 in the section
LINES WITH OTHER CLASSES AND WITHIN THIS CLASS, subsection
COMPOSITION CLASS SUPERIORITY, which includes a hierarchical
ORDER OF SUPERIORITY FOR COMPOSITION CLASSES.

animals.
(2) Note. Sponge is intended to encompass natural sponge, or
synthetic sponge which is identified as sponge rather than as
a particular chemical substance. If a component is identified
both as sponge and in terms of its chemical structure, said
component should be classified as an original here and should
be cross-referenced to the appropriate chemical structure
subclass.

carboxylic acid ester lubricant base component, in order to
be classified in this subclass or its indents, must be
structurally identified to the point where the component can
be placed in this subclass or a specific indent on the basis
of a complete structure. This structure may be expressed
generically or specifically, but it must be expressed in the
claims. Such descriptions as "ester," "carboxylic acid
ester," "aryl ester," "aliphatic ester," "substituted
carboxylic acid ester," etc. will not be deemed sufficient to
warrant classification in this subclass or its indents. A
generically expressed structure which would be properly
classifiable herein may be exemplified by "an alkyl benzoate,
substituted in the alkyl portion by halogen, amino or
alkoxy." Such a generic expression allows identification of
exact substances within its scope.
When a carboxylic acid ester is present as a lubricant
additive rather than as a lubricant base, placement of such
an additive will be effected in the normal manner.
