EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES ON PSEUDOPLASTIC AND THIXOTROPIC PROPERTIES OF LITHIUM GREASES WITH ATR -FTIR SPECTROSCOPY
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2009, Vol 224, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper deals with experimental studies on pseudoplastic and thixotropic properties of lubricating greases with ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The research was done on lithium greases thickened by lithium 12-hydroxystearate with mineral base oil. The molecular bonds between dispersed particles of lithium soap during the shearing process and the relaxation of grease were identified.<br/><br/>
