When speaking about lubricants, one always
thinks of oils, but in reality there are
many applications where non liquid
lubricants are used; among the most
well-known of these products are the
greases.
A grease is composed of a thickener and a
lubricating oil; the thickener is used to
holding the oil which, conversely, takes
care of lubricating. Actually, the thickener
can be seen as a “sponge” which holds the
oil inside itself, letting it out only in
certain circumstances which are those in
which the lubrication is really needed.
The properties of grease is therefore
connected to the nature and type of
thickener and to that of the employed
lubricant.
It is possible to have thickeners with soap
bases (calcium, lithium, sodium, etc.),
complex soaps (calcium, lithium,
litho-calcium, aluminium, etc.) or other
types (bentone, polyurea, etc.);
analogously, mineral, semi-synthetics or
synthetics oils can be dispersed in the
thickener.
Also from a productive point of view,
greases are more complex than oils in that
it is not enough to mix individual
components, but it is necessary to implement
a sufficiently delicate productive process
which also involves chemical reactions
between the different components employed.
The choice of the right grease is difficult
and must be done with the aid of an adeguate
technical support because there are many
parameters which can influence the
efficiency of the products and machinery
lubricated with grease.
Agip is one of the main grease manufacturer
and it has a vast and articulate range able
to satisfy the needs of both the industrial
and automotive fields.

of our lubricants can be found; for
