Tribological properties of graphite particles as an anti-friction and anti-wear additive in lithium soap grease
The objective of this study is to investigate the use of graphite submicron particles as an additive to enhance the tribological properties of lithium soap grease. In this study, various concentrations of graphite particles ranging from 0 to 16 wt.% were incorporated into the lithium soap grease. Th...

In this study, various concentrations of graphite particles ranging from 0 to 16 wt.% were incorporated into the lithium soap grease.

The results of the experiment showed that the addition of graphite particles led to reduction in the viscosity of the lithium soap grease.
