Molybdenum Disulfide is dry/solid lubricant powder, also known as the molybdenite (principal ore from which molybdenum metal is extracted), and has the chemical formula MoS2. MoS2 is made using flotation processes and is the product of thermal treatment of molybdenum compounds with hydrogen sulfide or sulfur. MoS2 has a low coefficient of friction and has lubricating properties. It is primarily used as a solid lubricant for its low friction properties and robustness.
