Tungsten disulfide (WS₂) is an excellent lubricating material widely used in various industrial fields, and has attracted much attention due to its unique structure and properties.
Main Applications of Tungsten Disulfide
- Aerospace: used for lubrication of aircraft engines and spacecraft because it can work under extreme temperature and pressure conditions.
- Automotive industry: used for lubrication of key components such as engines, transmissions and chassis to improve vehicle performance and life.
- Industrial machinery: used in various heavy machinery and equipment, such as compressors, pumps, gearboxes, etc., to ensure their smooth operation.
- Electrical and electronic equipment: used in certain high-demand electrical contact points and connectors to reduce friction and wear and ensure reliable electrical performance.
- Vacuum environment: Lubrication under vacuum conditions, traditional lubricants are prone to volatilization or failure, while tungsten disulfide can maintain good lubrication effects.
