Oiling :-

Oiling is one of the best and conventional methods used to protect the metal from rust. As oil and water do not mix with each other, oiling forms a protective coating for the metal and hence prevent it from rusting . Oil can penetrate the oxide-water on the metal and stabilise it . It also goes into holes and restricted or very minute areas of the metal and again prevents it from corrosion.

Note :-

  • Rusting happens because of water. It is a kind of oxidation but it can be prevented if the correct measures are taken in the correct time .

Greasing :-

A layer of grease will prevent rusting or oxidation of iron products. It is mainly the contact of iron with oxygen that results in rust and grease will prevent it the oxygen from rusting the metal.

Note :-

  • In industries the grease doesn't just reduce the effect of friction but it prevents rust.
