Abstract:
A continuous process for preparing lithium complex greases improved by using a complexing agent of dimethyl glutarate, dimethyl adipate, glutaric acid, adipic acid, or mixtures thereof, and preferably also a specialized flash chamber to achieve a penetration split (60X-UW) of within −20 mm/10 to 10 mm/10, a roll stability (D1831) of 240 C.
