Compatibility of lubricating greases

This article reports on a study of grease serviceability in actual mechanisms. Investigates the formation of grease mixtures during relubrication of the component and subsequent operation. Finds that the mechanical stability of the mixtures varied for the most part in proportion to the ratio of greases. Points out that the nature of the thickening agent is the predominant factor in determining grease properties and compatibility. Examines model systems obtained by thickening a given oil with the various thickening agents that are most widely used in commercial production.
