How Effective Is Lubrication of Tungsten Disulfide?

The lubricating advantages of tungsten disulfide as an additive are:

  1. It has a very low coefficient of friction (0.03), high extreme pressure resistance and oxidation resistance (it starts to decompose at 450°C in air, completely decomposes at 650°C, starts to decompose at 1100°C in vacuum, and completely decomposes at 2000°C). It is suitable for lubrication under various harsh conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, high vacuum, high load, high speed, high radiation, strong corrosion, and ultra-low temperature.
  2. It has good adsorption capacity on the metal surface. It can be added to engineering plastics to make lubricating components or evenly mixed with some volatile solvents, and then sprayed on the metal surface to improve the life of the die and the surface finish of the workpiece in punching and forging.
  3. Tungsten disulfide powder can be mixed with oil and fat to form tungsten disulfide oil, tungsten disulfide ointment, tungsten disulfide wax and other solid lubricating blocks and lubricating films.

According to calculations, tungsten disulfide is added as an additive to lubricating oil for 10,000-ton wheels, and only 1 kg is needed for driving 20,000 kilometers. This product is used in automobile engines, which can reduce the friction coefficient by more than 1 times, prolong the service life of the engine by more than 5 times, and save fuel by 15% on average.
