Lubricant
- A lubricant is a chemical that assists in the reduction of friction among surfaces in mutual contact, hence lowering the heat created when the surfaces move.
- It may also be used to transmit forces, convey foreign particles, either heat as well as cool the surfaces.
- Lubricity is the quality of minimizing friction between two particles. For example, oil and grease.
