Industrial lanolin is an important application field of lanolin, which is mainly used to make various lubricants, emulsifiers, additives, etc. Due to its excellent lubricity, adhesion and emulsion stability, lanolin is widely used in industrial production.
First of all, lanolin can be used to make lubricants. Friction and wear are unavoidable during the operation of machinery, which not only reduces the efficiency of equipment, but also increases energy consumption and maintenance costs. Lanolin can effectively reduce friction and wear and improve the operating efficiency and life of equipment due to its strong lubrication, high adhesion and good anti-wear performance.
Secondly, lanolin can be used to make emulsifiers. An emulsifier is a substance that is able to mix two immiscible liquids together to form a stable emulsion. Lanolin has good emulsion stability and can be used to prepare various emulsions, such as emulsions in coatings, cosmetics, food and other fields.
In addition, lanolin can also be used to make various additives. For example, lanolin can be added as an additive to plastics, rubber, coatings and other materials to improve their performance and stability. It can also be used to make waterproofing agents, rust inhibitors, anti-corrosion agents and other chemicals.
In short, industrial lanolin has a wide range of applications, not only in machinery, electronics, chemical industry and other fields, but also in food, medicine, cosmetics and other fields. With the continuous development of science and technology, the application prospect of lanolin will be broader.
