PLTL-18 Moisture by Weight per SAE AMS-M-7866
Molybdenum disulfide powder has exceptional extreme pressure lubricating properties and may be used as either a pure powder or formulated into lubricating oils and greases. The moisture level in MoS2 powder is important both for quality control purposes and for proper use in formulations. This test determines moisture in molybdenum disulfide powder.
10 grams of the molybdenum disulfide powder are accurately weighed. The sample is then heated and reweighed repeatedly until a constant weight change is obtained. Reported is the calculated percent moisture based on this weight change.
