Dry film lubricants are special types of lubricants used for various lubrication purposes.
They feature solid-state lubricants blended into a resin to reduce friction and wear, with the characteristic of being in a solid state rather than liquid, forming a “dry film.” The operating principle relies on the low friction of the solid lubricants, which reduces the coefficient of friction at the frictional interfaces, thus inhibiting friction and wear. Their applications include use in automotive parts, industrial machinery, office equipment, and household appliances.
The mechanism of dry film lubricants involves blending solid lubricants into resin and applying them as coatings, allowing the solid lubricants to come into contact with the frictional surfaces, thus exhibiting low-friction effects. They require less maintenance compared to other oils and greases, and have with excellent performance under high temperatures, pressures, and vacuum environments.
