Synthetic Lubricants for Sugar Mill Applications

     Manapa, H. and Thomas, J.C. 1997.   This paper expands on the unique features of good lubricity, high viscosity index and cleanliness of Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) as it relates to lubrication of heavily loaded components in sugar mills such as mill bearings, crown wheels, open gears, worn gears and the like. The benefits of these PAG sugar mill lubricants for sugarcane applications are discussed. PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHILIPPINE SUGAR TECHNOLOGISTS. August: 288-301.
