Plastic lubricants
Maximizes the performance of various resin components
Features
- Because it exhibits excellent abrasion resistance against resin (plastic), it reduces friction in moving resin parts, suppresses wear, and contributes to extending the life of the parts.
- It can be used on many types of rubber and resin (plastic) and will not adversely affect rubber or resin.
Characteristics
Due to the growing need for weight reduction and advances in material technology, resins are increasingly being used in machine elements such as gears. Since resins generally have a low coefficient of friction, they may be used without lubrication, but the use of lubricants can further reduce friction and wear. However, when using a lubricant on resins, it is necessary to select one that does not have a negative effect. We offer a lineup Plastic lubricants that do not have a negative effect on resins and maximize the performance of resin parts.
Evaluation Test
Vibration friction and wear test
A vibration friction and wear tester was used to measure the friction coefficient when resins moved against each other, and the lubrication condition was confirmed.
The test results showed that the friction coefficient of the competitor's product was not stable throughout the test, and became particularly unstable after 50 hours of testing.
Lubricants for plastics TL 1013 has a lower and more stable coefficient of friction compared to other products.
By using Lubricants for plastics TL 1013, you can expect to reduce friction, suppress wear, and extend the life of plastic parts.
[Test conditions]
Contact type: Line contact/sliding
Test materials: POM cylinder, POM disk
Load: 20N
Temperature: Room temperature
Frequency: 20Hz
Amplitude: 2mm
Time: ~70 hours
Resin stress test (original)
To check the compatibility of the lubricant and resin, a resin stress test was carried out.
A cylinder was placed so that the center of a resin test piece (100 mm x 25 mm x 2 mm) was higher, and stress was applied to the test piece.
A lubricant was applied to the stressed area, and after drying at room temperature, it was left to stand in a thermostatic chamber at 70°C for 100 hours.
After leaving it to stand, the appearance was checked for the presence or absence of breaks or cracks and the compatibility of the lubricant with the resin test material was confirmed.
Lubricants for plastics TL 1013 did not experience any breakage or cracks in any of the resins tested.
Application
- Plastic gears for office equipment such as copiers and printers
- Automotive accessories, plastic gears for electrical equipment
- Plastic gears and parts for noise reduction
