2. Rustproofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rustproofing

   Other benefits of petroleum-based rust protection include the self-healing properties that come naturally to oils, which helps undercoatings to resist abrasion caused by road sand and other debris. The disadvantage of using a petroleum-based coating is the film left over on surfaces, rendering these products too messy for top side exterior ...

3. Corrosion inhibitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_inhibitor

   Corrosion inhibitors are common in industry, and also found in over-the-counter products, typically in spray form in combination with a lubricant and sometimes a penetrating oil. They may be added to water to prevent leaching of lead or copper from pipes. [2]

4. Cosmoline - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmoline

   Cosmoline became widely known when it received a government specification as a rust preventive and began its use by the military to protect various equipment from rust and corrosion. Cosmoline could be found on military equipment in the Spanish–American War, World War I, World War II, and the Korean and Vietnam Wars.

5. Extreme pressure additive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_pressure_additive

   Oil-soluble organophosphates, with or without zinc, have excellent high-pressure and antiwear properties, and provide corrosion protection especially in presence of chlorinated hydrocarbons. Zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDDP) start decomposing at 130-170 °C, while the activation temperature of tricresyl phosphate (TCP) typically exceeds 200 ...

6. Phosphate conversion coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphate_conversion_coating

   Phosphate conversion coating is a chemical treatment applied to steel parts that creates a thin adhering layer of iron, zinc, or manganese phosphates to improve corrosion resistance or lubrication or as a foundation for subsequent coatings or painting.

7. Oil additive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_additive

   Corrosion or rust inhibiting additives retard the oxidation of metals inside an engine. Antioxidant additives retard the degradation of the oil stock by oxidation. Typical additives are organic amines and phenols. Metal deactivators create a film on metal surfaces to prevent the metal from causing the oil to be oxidized.

8. Lubricant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lubricant

   A lubricant (sometimes shortened to lube) is a substance that helps to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move. It may also have the function of transmitting forces, transporting foreign particles, or heating or cooling the surfaces.

9. Bluing (steel) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluing_(steel)

   It does provide good rust resistance, which is improved with oil. "Rust bluing" and "fume bluing" provide the best rust and corrosion resistance as the process continually converts any metal that is capable of rusting into magnetite (Fe 3 O 4). Treating with an oiled coating enhances the protection offered by the bluing.
