Portland, OR -- (SBWire) -- 06/27/2017 --Grease is defined as a semi-solid compound formed by the deposition of thickening agent in the liquid lubricant. It is a chemical combination of thickener, oil, and additives. The behavior of grease is majorly defined by the composition of base oil & additives in the formulations. Additives in the grease are used to enhance desirable properties, suppress undesirable properties, or to add new properties to increase its working efficiency. Grease facilitates various excellent properties such as water resistance, lubrication to the moving surface under gravity, pressure, or centrifugal action. It also prevents contamination, any wear tear loss, and reduces noise and power consumption. Grease is used by various end user industries such as mining, general manufacturing, automotive, construction, railways, and others.
