Vacuum greases are low pressure application lubricants with lowvolatility. They are also used as sealants for joints in a vacuum system. In avacuum system, lubricants with higher volatility are susceptible to evaporate,causing wear and tear of the moving parts of the equipment. The globalvacuum grease market can be segmented based on base-oil type,application, and region.
In termsof base-oil type, the vacuum grease market can be classified into hydrocarbon,silicon, and fluorocarbon. Hydrocarbon vacuum greases are mineral oil-based andprimarily used by mechanisms requiring high frictional lubrication. They arehighly resistant to creep which means the chances of grease moving from itsapplication area are low and, thus, reduce contamination of the adjacentsurfaces. They also provide cleanliness and low outgassing without tainting thevacuum systems. They are easy to use and have a shelf-life of 10 years. Siliconvacuum greases have silicone oil as their base oil and are ideal forlubrication and as sealants due to their water resistance property. They arethermally stable and can withstand high working temperatures. Importantfeatures of silicon vacuum greases include excellent resistance to chemicals,sealing ability, and low volatility. The silicon-based vacuum greases can beused in applications operating below 10-8 mbar. Fluorocarbon-based vacuumgreases are chemically inert and offer superior lubrication in a vacuum system.The base oil used for fluorocarbon-based vacuum greases is fluorinated oil,which is made from perfluoroalkyl polyether and fluorocarbon thickener. Thefluorocarbon-based vacuum greases do not ignite or explode or decompose, and donot react to form solid deposits. They retain their lubricating ability atextreme temperatures ranging from –15 to –300 °C and offer resistance tooxidation. The applications of fluorocarbon-based vacuum greases include pressurerelief valve lubrication, oven conveyor chain and bearing grease,high-temperature bearing, valve, and O-ring lubrication, or any use thatrequires high-temperature stability, low vapor pressure, or chemical inertness.The fluorocarbon-based vacuum greases segment is estimated to constitute aprominent share of the vacuum grease market by the end of the forecast perioddue to significant investments in laboratory equipment industry in NorthAmerica and Europe.
