What is Lithium Stearate?

What is lithium-stearate? lithium stearate (C17H35COOLi) is a lithium salt derived from stearic acid. It is one of the most popular metal soaps. This is a colorless and almost insoluble powder that melts in water and alcohol at 220 degrees Celsius. It is most commonly used to make greases and waxes. The grease remains lubricated at temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius and is thermally stable up to temperatures of 150°C. This was the largest use of lithium metal before the invention of lithium-ion cells.
For pencils, small amounts of lithium Stearate can be used. It has a very low level of toxicity when administered orally. This makes it a good choice for cosmetics.

What purpose is lithium stearate useful for?
It is used to provide high water resistant and general-purpose grease. Lithium Stearate is versatile enough to be used at high or low temperatures. This makes it a popular choice in many industries, including the aerospace industry, heavy machinery industry, and automotive. The general-purpose grease lithium stearate also serves as a stabilizer in cosmetics and plastics. This compound is also a corrosion inhibitor in petroleum because of its properties.

Here are some applications for lithium stearate.
It can be used to thicken natural and synthetic oils.
It makes it possible to make lightweight metal molds.
It is a thicker, finer grease that is ideal for high-temperature applications.
It can raise the melting point of microcrystalline wax and increase its elasticity.
It is more resistant than other sodium and potassium soaps to losing consistency because of its higher melting point (22degC compared with 140degC).
It resists corrosion and rust well.
Lithium stearate is water-repellent but works well in all other environments.
This sealant is excellent.

What is lithium grease?
The invention of lithium grease occurred in the early 1940s. It's made of lithium hydroxide reacting in fatty acids. Modern lithium soaps are made from 12HSA (or triglyceride), and lithium hydroxide monohydrate in base liquid.
Grease is one the oldest lubricants that humans have used, dating back to 1400BC. It is a lubricant that reduces friction and acts as a seal. More than 90% use grease as alubricant.
It could be either mineral oil, synthetic fluid, or a combination of both. There are many fats that can be used to make lithium soap. The preferred oils are 12HSA (12-hydroxy stearate grease) and HCO (hydrogenated casting oil). Perhaps the most versatile multi-purpose grease ever invented is lithium 12-hydroxy stearate grease.
The water resistance of lithium grease is excellent (not as good than calcium), and it has excellent mechanical or thermal stability. The continuous operating temperature is 130°C (266°F), with a drop point of between 190 and 200°C. It is the most preferred bearing grease in almost every industrial field.

what is Molybdenum Lubricant ?

What exactly is Molybdenum Lubricant?

Molybdenum a mineral found in nature has been used to enhance the lubricity for mechanical parts over many centuries. It acts as an antiwear layer by drawing itself onto the metal surface. If the additive cannot dissolve in oil, it will be ineffective. You will need a suitable oil lubricant in order to prevent it from clogging filters and passageways.

Molly grease may be found in nearly every part of heavy-duty vehicles. To prevent internal gearing from bind, U-joint manufacturers specify that grease should contain no more than 5% of molybdenum sulfide. Moly grease used on slack adjustment may reduce the equipment's performance.

Molybdenum compound grease provides a type lubricant with low friction but high pressure-absorption. It has stick-slip protection and anti-corrosion. Moly grease can be used to press-fit all types of machine components. Moly grease can also be used to prevent gear pitting. This grease can be used to lubricate metal-to–metal contacts and machine parts. It is also useful for the lubrication of threaded and roller bearings.

Molybdenum sulfide is also an important lubricant. It's a mixture of molybdenum, sulfur atoms. Through its sulfur atoms, this compound can bind to metal surfaces. Therefore, it prevents any asperities from touching the metal surfaces. MoS2, a common molybdenum-based lubricant is another. It has particles sizes that range from 1 to 100 um. The sliding friction properties of MoS2 are low at 0.01 to 0.1 s.
