\nHowever, not all conventional lubrication formulas are compatible with elastomers, and the use of incompatible lubricants can lead to weakening or degradation of components.
\nTherefore, performing tests becomes essential to identify the right lubricant for a specific application.
\nCompatibility tables provide a starting point, but often lack comprehensive data.
\nIn this context, “compatibility” refers to the minimal impact of lubricating greases<\/a> on the physical properties of the polymer or elastomer in terms of size, hardness or brittleness.
\nThe acceptability of changes in both polymer and grease depends on the intended application.
\nThe test method described in this paper facilitates selection by evaluating swelling and observing changes in color or texture.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”10″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” video_bg=”use_video” video_external=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/BbdonOJwO6c” background_video_loading=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ video_bg=”use_video” video_mp4=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/BbdonOJwO6c” video_webm=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/BbdonOJwO6c” background_video_loading=”default” column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”20px” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][image_with_animation image_url=”27716″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”15px” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n

Compatible Lubricants: MOLYKOTE\u00ae G-4501 and MOLYKOTE\u00ae G-67 Extreme Pressure Grease<\/h2>\n

Mascherpa recommends lubricants such as MOLYKOTE\u00ae G-4501<\/a>, a multi-purpose synthetic grease formulated to provide increased wear resistance and extended operating life for elastomer parts.
\nThis product is compatible with numerous elastomers and offers good load-carrying capacity, making it ideal for industries that require high performance and reliability.
\nIn addition, Mascherpa stresses the importance of choosing lubricants with high temperature and oxidation resistance, such as MOLYKOTE\u00ae G-67<\/a> Extreme Pressure Grease, which provides excellent protection from corrosion and contact between metal surfaces while maintaining compatibility with elastomers.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n

Conclusions<\/h2>\n

Elastomer-based machinery parts are a cost-effective alternative to metal components, and proper lubrication is critical to maximizing their operational efficiency and durability.
\nHowever, the use of incompatible lubricants can compromise the integrity of these components.
\nTherefore, extensive testing is essential to identify the most suitable lubricant for each application.
\nUsing the test method described here can simplify the selection process and enable users to distinguish between valid and invalid lubricant options based on swell calculations and observation of color or texture changes.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
