Molybdenum-based oil additive (Molyslip) on a metal surface. Examples of this class of oil additive typically contain the inorganic compound molybdenum disulphide (MoS2),which is a sulphide of the transition metal molybdenum (Mo). Molybdenum disulphide is a solid,not a liquid,and is an example of a solid lubricant. It contains sheets of sulphur (S) atoms that are weakly bonded and slide easily over one another. Molybdenum-based oil additives are used to reduce friction in engines and other moving parts in machines,increasing fuel economy and efficiency | |
