Molybdenum disulfide as a solid lubricant
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts and experienced colleagues: when using molybdenum disulfide powder as a solid lubricant in the rotating parts of equipment that require lubrication, such as bearings, what is the appropriate amount to use? What is the interval between additions? Is the amount required different for bearings operating at high speeds versus low speeds? Additionally, what grades are typically chosen regarding the purity and particle size of molybdenum disulfide? Purities ranging from 96% to over 99% are available, and the particle sizes range from 1 micron to 10 microns; the higher the purity and the smaller the particle size, the more expensive the powder. Thank you all!
It seems like there’s that component you mentioned in the grease, right?
