Definitions for "Lubricant"
Keywords:  slippery, friction, jelly, oily, lube
That which lubricates; specifically, a substance, as oil, grease, graphite, etc., used for reducing the friction of the working parts of machinery.
The agent used to aid in the reduction of friction between two parts. This term is used for many substances, which in turn are used in many different ways. They are all, however, used to reach the same objective, that being the reduction of wear between parts. In the case of engine fuel, the lubricant is added to the fuel at the factory in many cases. This might be castor, a synthetic, or a blend. The percentage of lubricant required in the fuel will depend on the type of fuel, the engine, and the model requirement. For helicopters, a higher percentage of lubricant is required, as the engine is not in a position to receive as much airflow. Thus the lubricant is also used as a coolant. Bearing grease, and oils for moving parts are other examples of lubricants.
Additive compounded into a resin. Can be classified into two areas: internal and external. Lubricants promote resin flow and/or mold release.
A bearing lubricant lubricates the rolling and moving surfaces, protects from corrosion spreads heat evenly and inhibits contamination
an excipient which is added to a powder blend to prevent the compacted powder mass from sticking to the equipment during the tabletting or encapsulation process
( http://www.industriallubricants.org) – A fluid substance applied to the punch and die walls or mixed into the metal powder to aid in the compaction process and compact removal.
Lubricants are an essential part of modern machinery. Everything from computer hard disk drives to the Airbus A380 requires lubrication of its moving parts.
a viscous product used in the engine for its smooth functioning
Lubricating.
