2. Lithium soap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_soap

   Lithium grease in use. Lithium soap is a soap consisting of a lithium salt of a fatty acid. [1] [2] Sodium-based and potassium-based soaps are used as cleaning agents in domestic and industrial applications, whereas lithium soaps are used as components of lithium grease (white lithium).

3. Grease (lubricant) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_(lubricant)

   Lithium-based grease has a dropping point at 190 to 220 °C (374 to 428 °F). However the maximum usable temperature for lithium-based grease is 120 °C. The amount of grease in a sample can be determined in a laboratory by extraction with a solvent followed by e.g. gravimetric determination. [6]

4. Lithium 12-hydroxystearate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_12-hydroxystearate

   Lithium 12-hydroxystearate exhibits high oxidation stability and a dropping point up to around 200 °C. Most greases used today in motor vehicles, aircraft, and heavy machinery contain lithium stearates, mainly lithium 12-hydroxystearate. [1] Greases can be made with the addition of several different metallic soaps.

5. Saponification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saponification

   Lithium 12-hydroxystearate and other lithium-based fatty acids are important constituents of lubricating greases. In lithium-based greases, lithium carboxylates are thickeners. "Complex soaps" are also common, these being combinations of more than one acid salt, such as azelaic or acetic acid. [7]

6. Lithium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium

   Lithium and its compounds have several industrial applications, including heat-resistant glass and ceramics, lithium grease lubricants, flux additives for iron, steel and aluminium production, lithium metal batteries, and lithium-ion batteries. These uses consume more than three-quarters of lithium production.

7. Lithium stearate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_stearate

   Lithium stearate is a chemical compound with the formula LiO 2 C(CH 2) 16 CH 3. It is formally classified as a soap (a salt of a fatty acid ). Lithium stearate is a white soft solid, prepared by the reaction of lithium hydroxide and stearic acid .
