The occurrence of grease hardening and dryness in the use of lubricants, especially greases in the electrical industry, has become a common problem we face. Over the years, research on synthetic greases and new greases has shown that the cost of using them is very expensive.
With the increasing demand for petroleum and the depletion of existing reserves, coupled with heightened environmental awareness, it's time to look for more cost-effective alternatives. One promising solution is to utilize waste oil as an alternative to base oil for grease formulations.
Waste oil has great potential, as the re-refining process is relatively inexpensive and can produce high-quality oil. This is an important step towards reducing costs while maintaining environmental sustainability. However, we also need to ensure that the optimal lubricant formulation can solve the problem of grease hardening and dryness, especially in the power industry where these lubricants are in high demand.
One of the main uses of Grease Pump is to prevent the increase of electrical resistance in electrical connections.
It is made of a unique material consisting of lubricating oil dispersed in a gel structure. At normal temperatures, this grease does not flow and has solid properties, allowing it to maintain its shape. However, as load is applied or the temperature increases, this gel structure begins to break down and the grease will flow like oil.
However, there is a limit. When the load and temperature reach certain critical values, the lubricating grease may lose its solid properties. This is something that needs to be considered to avoid malfunction.
One of the main uses of lubricating grease is to prevent increased electrical resistance in electrical connections. By using this grease, we can keep the connection optimized and prevent problems that could arise from corrosion or friction.
