Industrial Lubricant
Lubricants are kinds of materials that are used for reducing friction and exhaustion of dynamic metal parts that are in contact with one another. Accordingly, a subtle layer of lubricant which is called the viscosity of the lubricant is generated between the parts of machines. Each lubricant consists of a basic substance to which several additives are added. This substance can be mineral (with petroleum source) or synthetic (such as polyolefin, polyesters, and polyethylene glycols). Mineral bases are usually vacuuming distillation products and asphalt residues that have been subjected to solvent extraction, waxing, and refining.
The benefits of lubricants
These materials are useful to ensure of correct movement of parts of a machine. The primary role of these industrial substances is to reduce the friction of surfaces of machines, and durability and enhance their longevity. Since, we know that friction produces heat, lubricants cause to transfer heat from the surface of machines and also helps in cooling process. Due to this, this group of substances is also called heat transfer fluids. Moreover, these substances sometimes reduce the electrical resistance
