Microcrystalline wax used for the lubrication of metal components

The mechanism and advantages of microcrystalline wax in metal lubrication lie
in:
Its fine crystalline structure enhances the gel strength, adhesion, and
protective properties of grease, thereby forming a uniform, resilient oil
film on metal surfaces that effectively isolates friction pairs and reduces
direct contact;
Simultaneously, its excellent adhesion and toughness maintain stability under
dynamic loads, suppressing oil film rupture.‌ Compared to conventional
paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax exhibits superior flex resistance and
plasticity, enabling its lubricating film to better accommodate deformation
in metal components. This makes it particularly suitable for applications
demanding flexibility and impact resistance.‌
