Lubricants
A lubricant is a substance that helps reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact and ultimately reduces the heat produced when surfaces move. It may also have the function of transmitting forces, transporting foreign particles, or heating or cooling surfaces. In addition to industrial applications, lubricants are used for many other purposes. It is mainly used to reduce friction and contribute to the better and more efficient operation of a mechanism. The oils are in the environment in which they operate, from the main machine to the secondary equipment, to ensure their trouble-free operation.

Mineral Oil
Mineral oil, unlike edible vegetable oils, is any of various colorless, odorless, light mixtures of higher alkanes from a mineral source, especially a petroleum distillate. The name ‘mineral oil’ alone is not precise, it has been used for many specialty oils over the past few centuries. Most often, mineral oil is a liquid byproduct of refining crude oil to make gasoline and other petroleum products.
Synthetic Oil
Synthetic oil is a lubricant consisting of artificially made chemical compounds. Synthetic lubricants can be produced using chemically modified petroleum components instead of whole crude oil, but can also be synthesized from other raw materials. However, the base material is crude oil, which has been distilled and then physically and chemically modified. The actual synthesis process and composition of additives is often a trade secret and differs between manufacturers.
