Lubricants Electronic Handbook, Five-User Network

Describes more than 8500 chemicals and materials that function as the major component in lubricant formulations. This reference will serve as a comprehensive source of information on currently available solid, synthetic, grease, wax, and oil lubricating substances including both trade names and generics. Lubricants are essential ingredients for diverse application areas including: air conditioning and refrigeration, cosmetics, electronics, foods & beverages/food processing, fuels, heat transfer fluids, metalworking, paints/coatings, pharmaceuticals, plastic and rubber processing. The Handbook of Lubricants is designed to function as a selection tool for deciding which is the most appropriate lubricant chemical to use in a formulation. A wide variety of lubricant types are included: petroleum lubricants (based on hydrocarbon products), synthetic lubricants (based on silicones, phosphate esters, silicate esters, polyglycol ether compounds, fluoral compounds, etc.), liquid oily lubricants (based on animal and vegetable products) and solid lubricants (based on metals, organic, and inorganic compounds). This reference centralizes information on these currently available chemicals and materials from major manufacturers by profiling both trade name and generic chemicals, detailing their properties, uses, use levels, regulatory status, toxicology, sources for purchase.Lubricants Electronic Handbook, Five-User Network, was published 2001 under ISBN 9781890595531 and ISBN 1890595535.
