Time for TBN (and all the rest)
TBN? What is that acronym? Is it on Google? Is it relevant for lubricant consumers to know? Why is TBN not displayed on a can of lube? Is TBN more relevant to specific operating conditions? […]

Introduction The solid-solid contacts are formed when there is an asperity-to-asperity interaction at the interface of two surfaces. This contact is caused due to the interatomic interactions that lead to adhesion. Further, the adhesion of […]
Introduction The application of using rotary machines to convert the rotating energy from different sources to useful energy is well known. For these rotating machines, there is always one rotating part that is separated from […]
Introduction The materials undergo wear due to various reasons, the mechanical action exerted on its surface, the environmental factors, the physical and chemical nature, due to the process like fatigue and creep, etc. It is […]
Introduction The friction of materials is an important property to be studied to understand its role in any mechanical applications. The tribological properties of any material are determined by its frictional behaviour, this behaviour will […]
Introduction Wettability is a surface property of any material which is important to be studied to understand its affinity towards any liquid medium. Contact angle measurements are the way to understand wettability of the surface. […]
Introduction Transformer oil or insulating oil is generally a highly refined mineral oil that is stable at high temperature and has excellent electrical insulating properties. It is used in oil-filled power transformers, some types of […]
Introduction This article is about the lubrication tool called the “Grease Gun.” Grease guns are a standard tool in the garage and workshop for lubrication. Grease guns apply lubricant through an aperture to a specific […]
