Introduction of MoS2 vs. PAO Polyalphaolefin (PAO) lubricants, commonly known as synthetic oils, play a vital role across industries due to their ability to withstand extreme temperatures and provide excellent lubrication. However, challenges exist in several key areas. In boundary lubrication scenarios, where the lubricant film is thin or nonexistent, PAO lubricants may struggle to […]
Introduction to Foundry Operations with MoS2 Grease At the heart of the foundry industry lies a realm of intense heat, heavy machinery, and relentless operations. To ensure seamless production processes and extended equipment lifespan, effective lubrication is paramount. Enter MoS2 grease – a game-changer in foundry lubrication, offering unparalleled protection against wear, corrosion, and the […]
What is MoS2: How MoS2 Works as a Lubricant Molybdenum Di Sulfide or MoS2 is a layered material, with each layer consisting of a nano thin sheet of molybdenum atoms which are sandwiched between two nano sheets of sulfur atoms. The layers are held together by weak van der Waals forces, allowing them to easily slide over each other. How MoS2 works as lubricant? […]
