The testing of grease and lubricants can aid people such as chemical engineers and designers. The data provided by testing can help with qualification approval, comparisons, grade of product, and quality assurance. Testing is also helpful for those marketing the product and consumers who want to find the right product for their project.
Grease and Lubricant Testing is a process that identifies chemico-physical and mechanico-dynamical properties in a product to ensure it meets quality standards or so it can be used for a specified purpose. Testing identifies performance parameters as well compare products.
