Molybdenum Disulfide powder (MoS2) with purity 99.9-99.99%

Molybdenum Disulfide is dry/solid lubricant powder, also known as the molybdenite (principal ore from which molybdenum metal is extracted), and has the chemical formula MoS2. It is insoluble in water and dilute acids. Crystal structure is Hexagonal Lamellar and is similar to graphite, Boron Nitride and Tungsten Disulfide. It also has excellent film forming properties and is an excellent lubricant in moisture free environments below 400° C. MoS2 offers excellent lubricity properties in inert atmospheres and under high vacuum where other conventional lubricants fail. MoS2 also offers extreme pressure lubricant properties. MoS2 is able to withstand up to 250,000 p.s.i. which makes it extremely effective when used in applications such as cold metal forming.
