Covering the Bases: A Study of the Influence of Synthetic Base Fluids on High Performance Greases

As demand on equipment productivity and reliability continue to increase, it becomes more important to understand the impact of base fluid in improving the performance of lubricating greases under severe conditions, including higher loads and broader operating temperatures. Featured in NLGI Spokesman, authors, Luca Salvi, Product Development – Formulation Principal, ExxonMobil Technology and Engineering Company and Joseph Kaperick, Technical Advisor – Grease Technology, Afton Chemical Corp take closer look at the performance of several different lithium complex greases produced with high viscosity metallocene polyalphaolefin (mPAO) base oils.
