Abstract

A composition for solid coating formation, includes a mixed solvent including water and a dipolar aprotic solvent, a powdery organic resin which is partially soluble at least in the dipolar aprotic solvent. The powdery organic resin is dissolved or dispersed in the mixed solvent.

Claims (25)

1. A tubular threaded joint comprising

a pin and a box each of which is provided with a contact surface comprising a threaded portion and an unthreaded metal contact portion,

wherein the contact surface of at least one member of the pin and the box has a solid coating formed by applying a composition for solid coating formation to the contact surface,

wherein the composition comprises a mixed solvent consisting of water and a dipolar aprotic solvent, and a powdery organic resin which is partially soluble at least in the dipolar aprotic solvent,

wherein the powdery organic resin is dissolved or dispersed in the mixed solvent, and

wherein the dipolar aprotic solvent is one or more solvents selected from the group consisting of dimethylsulfoxide and γ-butyrolactone.

2. The tubular threaded joint according to claim 1 ,

wherein the solid coating has: a first layer which does not contain lubricating particles; and a second layer formed thereon, which contains lubricating particles.

3. The tubular threaded joint according to claim 2 ,

wherein a thickness of the solid coating is 5 μm to 100 μm.

4. The tubular threaded joint according to claim 1 ,

wherein a thickness of the solid coating is 5 μm to 100 μm.

5. A tubular threaded joint comprising

a pin and a box each of which is provided with a contact surface comprising a threaded portion and an unthreaded metal contact portion,

wherein the contact surface of at least one member of the pin and the box has a solid coating formed by applying a composition for solid coating formation to the contact surface,

wherein the composition comprises a mixed solvent consisting of water and a dipolar aprotic solvent, a powdery organic resin which is partially soluble at least in the dipolar aprotic solvent, and lubricating particles,

wherein the powdery organic resin is dissolved or dispersed in the mixed solvent, and

wherein the dipolar aprotic solvent is one or more solvents selected from the group consisting of dimethylsulfoxide and γ-butyrolactone.

6. A tubular threaded joint comprising

a pin and a box each of which is provided with a contact surface comprising a threaded portion and an unthreaded metal contact portion,

wherein the contact surface of at least one member of the pin and the box has a solid coating formed by applying a composition for solid coating formation to the contact surface,

wherein the composition comprises a mixed solvent consisting of water and a dipolar aprotic solvent, and a powdery organic resin which is partially soluble at least in the dipolar aprotic solvent,

wherein the powdery organic resin is dissolved or dispersed in the mixed solvent,

wherein the dipolar aprotic solvent is one or more solvents selected from the group consisting of dimethylsulfoxide and γ-butyrolactone, and

wherein the powdery organic resin is one or more resins selected from the group consisting of a polyamide-imide resin, an epoxy resin, and a fluororesin.
