Why Dry Film MoS2 Lubricant is the Best
What makes molybdenum disulfide a good lubricant, and what does it do?
Among the most popular solid film lubricants in America is MoS2 (molybdenum disulfide), also known as Moly, and for an excellent purpose. The dichalcogenide group member Dry Film MoS2 Lubricant is an excellent candidate for your dry lubricant requirements due to its chemical characteristics. Its strong covalent connection with molybdenum and the weak atomic contact between its sulfide anions make it such an excellent lubricant. Which application method for molybdenum disulfide is the simplest? Beginning with AS5272, MIL-PRF-46010, and AMS2526, a few of the requirements that are relevant to MoS2 applications are listed below.
Dry Film MoS2 Lubricant has a wide range of uses. It can be used in a variety of techniques, such as physical vapour deposition, impingement with or without an inorganic binder, rubbing and burnishing, and spraying or dipping a material that resembles paint but includes molybdenum disulfide. MoS2 environmental requirements
● It can carry a relative load of 250,000 PSI.
● The vacuum ranges from 10 to 14 Torr and -185 to 1,100 degrees Celsius.
● The temperature outside is between -185 and 350 degrees Celsius.
● Chemical stability is non-toxic, inert, and resistant to corrosion.
MoS2 coating requirements
Substrates include all ferrous or non-ferrous metals, synthetic solids, polymers, and other materials.
Appearance is Silver grey or blue
Applications Cryogenic pumps, compressors, rheostats, circuit breakers, switches, chucks, collets,
and tools, machine tools, pins, and taps, pilot valves, chainsaws, magnetic heads, slide mechanisms,
seamer rolls, rubber gaskets, and O ring seals are a few examples of applications.
Cure time If applied at room temperature, a cure period is not necessary.
Material specifications for MoS2
