Temperature Resistance of Russian Vacuum Lubricants

  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The temperature resistance of Russian vacuum lubricants is studied. The antifrictional properties of lubricants based on perfluoropolyethers are found to be similar: they ensure a low frictional coefficient at 30–300°C. The thermal stability is best for Amethyst and Nika lubricants.
