2. Dry lubricant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_lubricant

   Dry lubricants or solid lubricants are materials that, despite being in the solid phase, are able to reduce friction between two surfaces sliding against each other without the need for a liquid oil medium. [1] The two main dry lubricants are graphite and molybdenum disulfide. They offer lubrication at temperatures higher than liquid and oil ...

3. Oil drying agent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_drying_agent

   Oil drying agent. An oil drying agent, also known as siccative, is a coordination compound that accelerates ( catalyzes) the hardening of drying oils, often as they are used in oil-based paints. This so-called "drying" (actually a chemical reaction that produces an organic plastic) occurs through free-radical chemical crosslinking of the oils.

4. Drying oil - Wikipedia

   A drying oil is an oil that hardens to a tough, solid film after a period of exposure to air, at room temperature. The oil hardens through a chemical reaction in which the components crosslink (and hence, polymerize) by the action of oxygen (not through the evaporation of water or other solvents ). Drying oils are a key component of oil paint ...

7. Moisture analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_analysis

   Moisture analysis. Moisture analysis covers a variety of methods for measuring the moisture content in solids, liquids, or gases. For example, moisture (usually measured as a percentage) is a common specification in commercial food production. [1] There are many applications where trace moisture measurements are necessary for manufacturing and ...
