Product Overview
Molybdenum disulphide (MoS?) powder is a highly refined, 98% extra pure dry lubricant known for its exceptional friction-reducing properties and thermal stability. This fine, dark-gray powder is chemically inert, making it suitable for applications where traditional lubricants fail due to extreme temperatures or harsh environments. The high purity ensures minimal impurities, enhancing its performance in precision applications. MoS? forms a thin, adhesive film on surfaces, reducing wear and extending the lifespan of mechanical components. Its layered structure allows for easy shearing under pressure, providing smooth operation even under heavy loads. This grade is particularly valued in research and industrial settings where consistency and reliability are critical. The powder is non-toxic, non-corrosive, and resistant to oxidation, ensuring long-term stability in storage and use. Whether used as a standalone lubricant or as an additive in composites, this molybdenum disulphide powder delivers superior performance in demanding conditions.
