[PROZESS-FOKUS: SOLID LUBRICANT DESIGN]
Solid Lubricants for Extreme Boundary Conditions
When fluid lubricants vaporize, solid lubricants sustain the interface load. We develop tailored solid formulations and carrier matrices for severe processes.
Tribology & Metallurgy
Rheology of Solid-Carrier Matrices
In high-temperature forming, classical liquid oils fail by instant evaporation. Solid lubricants like crystalline graphite, boron nitride, and inorganic metal silicates deliver a physically stable boundary film.
PROMET develops targeted organic carrier matrices (waxes, bitumen) that deliver the solids to tool faces, melt cleanly, and volatilize without carbon cracking residue, ensuring a stable boundary film.
