Overview and Application of Tungsten Disulfide Lubricating Oil Additives

Overview of Tungsten Disulfide Lubricant Additives

Tungsten disulfide is a layered value of a gray-black hexagonal lattice. Each layer consists of two layers of sulfur atoms and two layers of sulfur atoms sandwiched between 2:1 tungsten atoms. Among them, there is a strong covalent bond between the S atom and the W atom, and the interlayer S atoms are connected by van der Waals force. The special crystal structure makes WS2 more excellent in extreme pressure performance, anti-wear and anti-wear performance, heat resistance and oxidation resistance.

Tungsten disulfide lubricating grease is a gray-black lubricating grease refined from special compound sulfonate thickened ester synthetic oil and adding tungsten disulfide solid lubricant, anti-oxidation, anti-corrosion and other additives. This ultra-high temperature grease is designed for the lubrication of friction parts and bearings operating under extremely high temperatures, heavy loads and harsh conditions such as humidity and pollution, providing maximum protection against wear and rust and corrosion. Applicable temperature range: -20~+650°C, the highest intermittent temperature resistance can reach 800°C.

WS2 Tungsten Disulfide Lubricant Additive Application

WS2 tungsten disulfide is used as solid lubricant, dry lubricant and self-lubricating composite material: Nano WS2 is the best solid lubricant, with friction coefficient of 0.01~0.03, compressive strength up to 21.0 MPa, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, excellent Excellent load resistance, non-toxic and harmless, wide operating temperature range, long lubrication life and low friction coefficient.

Nano WS2 tungsten disulfide is an important additive for the production of high-performance lubricants. The study found that adding an appropriate amount of WS2 nanoparticles to the lubricating oil can significantly improve the lubricating performance of the lubricating oil, reduce the friction coefficient by 20% to 50%, and increase the oil film strength by 30% to 40%. Its lubricating performance is far better than nano molybdenum disulfide. Under the same conditions, the base oil lubricating performance of nano-WS2 tungsten disulfide is better than that of conventional particles, and has excellent lubricating performance. The results show that the combination of fluid lubrication with reliable lubrication, with the advantage of adding nanoparticles, can achieve full-range lubrication from room temperature to high temperature (≥800 °C). Therefore, nano-tungsten disulfide can be used as an additive to synthesize a new type of lubricating system, which has broad application prospects.

Tungsten disulfide can be used as a lubricant with better performance than molybdenum disulfide, lower coefficient of friction and higher compressive strength. Stand alone equipment for high temperature, high pressure, high speed, high load and operation in chemically active media. WS2 forging lubricant is equipped with tungsten disulfide and other materials, which can prolong the life of the mold and improve the finish of the product. The filler material is configured with PTFE and nylon to make self-lubricating parts. In addition, tungsten disulfide can also be used as a petrochemical catalyst. Its advantages are high cracking performance, stable and reliable catalytic activity, and long service life.
