Definitions

  • This invention relates to a grease composition with excellent anti-fretting corrosion characteristics.
  • Fretting corrosion also called abrasion-corrosion, rubbing corrosion and microvibration wear
  • abrasion-corrosion is a wear phenomenon which occurs when two objects pressed together at any pressure repeatedly slide relative to each other with very small amplitudes in the contact space.
  • the frictional dust which arises in the case of steel-steel microvibrations in the atmosphere turns to a fine brown iron oxide ( Fe 2 0 3 ) .
  • the phenomenon of the grease becoming brown occurs in various kinds of machinery, accompanying microvibrations and microsliding between two objects in contacts, as for example in automobile wheel bearings, bolt-tightened flanges and laminated springs. Fretting corrosion promotes wear in machine parts and bearings, and is also a cause of noise.
  • lubricating greases used in the past at lubrication points where fretting corrosion occurs have been highly paraffinic low-viscosity base oils with high penetration (soft greases of penetration not less than 320 are especially effective (NLGI Spokesman, Vol. 45, 1 (1982))), but satisfactory effectiveness has not necessarily been achieved.
