Reliable Industrial LubricationLauric Acid Lubricant is designed for consistent performance in industrial machinery, offering low to medium viscosity and thermal stability. It remains solid at temperatures up to 44C and shifts to a liquid state above this range, facilitating smooth operation across varying temperatures. Its neutral pH and non-corrosive nature ensure component longevity and maintenance simplicity.
Flexible Packaging and StorageThis lubricant is supplied in robust HDPE bags or drums, in customizable package sizes such as 25 kg and 50 kg, to fit specific industrial requirements. For best results, store the product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources. Proper storage preserves quality and extends its shelf life to 24 months in original packaging.
Eco-conscious ChemistryWith a formulation centered on pure lauric acid (dodecanoic acid), this lubricant combines performance with environmental responsibility. Its biodegradable profile and minimal ash and water content enhance operational safety while minimizing ecological impact. Suitable for applications where sustainability is a key consideration.
FAQs of Lauric Acid - Lubricant:
Q: How should Lauric Acid Lubricant be used in industrial machinery?
A: Lauric Acid Lubricant is typically deployed in its solid or melted state, depending on the machinerys operating temperature, to reduce friction and wear. It should be applied directly to moving parts or used as a component in formulation processes, ensuring even coverage and optimal lubrication.
Q: What storage conditions are recommended to maintain the products quality?
A: Store Lauric Acid Lubricant in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, within its original HDPE bag or drum. Avoid exposure to dampness and direct heat sources to preserve its crystalline structure and chemical integrity, thereby sustaining its 24-month shelf life.
Q: Where is Lauric Acid Lubricant commonly applied?
A: This product finds primary use in the lubrication of industrial machinery, manufacturing processes, and as an emulsifier or surfactant agent. It is utilized across numerous sectors such as automotive assembly, textile manufacturing, and chemical processing.
Q: What is the process for applying Lauric Acid Lubricant as an emulsifier or surfactant?
A: Lauric Acid Lubricant can be blended with suitable organic solvents or oils, then incorporated into formulations requiring stable emulsification. Its surface activity helps disperse other chemical ingredients, enhancing consistency and performance of the final product.
Q: When does Lauric Acid Lubricant transition from solid to liquid, and how does this affect its use?
A: The product melts between 43C and 46C. It remains solid during normal room temperature storage and handling, ensuring safety and ease of application. When heated above its melting point, it liquefies, making it suitable for high-temperature lubrication scenarios.
Q: What benefits does Lauric Acid Lubricant offer over conventional lubricants?
A: Lauric Acid Lubricant is biodegradable, non-corrosive, and eco-friendly, minimizing environmental harm while providing efficient lubrication. Its high purity and neutrality support safe handling and prolonged machine lifespan.
