The Apiezon AP family of hydrocarbon high-vacuum greases has been serving the market for a number of years and includes products highly regarded worldwide for their quality, consistency and excellent performance within vacuum applications. The greases are silicone-free and highly resistant to creep - the undesirable phenomenon often associated with many silicone-based products.
Apiezon AP 100 Grease is a silicone-free vacuum grease and lubricant. Containing PTFE, the AP100 brand of lubricating greases exhibits extremely high levels of lubricity and has been shown to provide eight times the level of lubrication offered by standard, petroleum-based lubricating greases. Apiezon AP100 is designed for use at ambient temperatures (generally ranging from 10 to 30 degrees Celsius). If you are seeking a grease capable of effectively performing at higher temperatures, Apiezon AP101 or Apiezon H Grease may be more appropriate.
Apiezon AP100 greaseis an ultra-high vacuum lubricating grease which has anti-seize properties, making it an effective protector and lubricant in ultra high vacuum applications. It demonstrates an extremely low water vapor pressure of 7 x 10^[-11] Torr at 20 degrees Celsius. It is recommended for use at ambient temperatures and does not suffer from the contamination problems associated with silicone-based greases (these include commonly-recognized phenomena such as "creep" or "carry-over"). Apiezon AP100 grease is relatively easy to clean and remove using hot water and an aqueous glassware detergent, hydrocarbon or chlorinated solvents.
The unique properties of Apiezon AP100 lubricating vacuum grease enable its frequent utilization in protecting stepping motors and gearboxes from corrosion and abrasion, particularly when subjected to high load conditions. Apiezon AP100 is also used to prevent seizure in stopcocks, taps and small metal fastenings.
The 'creep' resistance of Apiezon AP100 benefits scientific and semiconductor users alike. It helps to increase the accuracy of analytical techniques and improve yields in semiconductor manufacture by contamination avoidance. In addition, Apiezon AP100 is used for surface coating applications where silicone contamination may otherwise lead to poor surface adhesion and incomplete coating defects.
