DIY Calcium Grease: High Quality and Affordable

✨ Calcium grease is in high demand and has good properties as a water-repellent grease with wide uses and applications.

💲 Learn how to make high-quality calcium grease at a competitive price using readily available raw materials.

🛢️ The four raw materials needed to make calcium grease are fatty acids, lime, water, and mineral oil.

💡 To manufacture yellow calcium grease, clean oil is preferred over black oil to maintain high viscosity.

🔧 To increase the oil viscosity, 5 kg of a viscosity-raising polymer is added to each ton of oil.

📋 Before starting a calcium grease project, it is recommended to train by making a small 5 kg sample.

🔑 The video explains the process of making a calcium grease formula.

👩‍🔬 The key ingredients used are fatty acids, mineral oil, water, and lime (calcium hydroxide).

🔥 The process involves stirring and heating the mixture to promote saponification and produce soap.

:mag_right: The saponification process of creating calcium grease can be tested by placing a tablespoon on a cold metal surface and checking its fragility.

:oil_drum: In the post-saponification stage, mineral oil should be added to the soap mixture twice the amount of fatty acids.

:fire: The soap mixture should be heated to 110°C during the addition of oil and water.

🔑 Obtain desired grease by adding water and heating.

🔄 Stir the grease to achieve high-quality, plastic texture.

🌡️ Heat the grease to remove moisture and add mineral oil.

✨ Additives are used to create high-quality calcium grease at a competitive price.

📝 The method shown in the video is the standard reference method for making calcium grease.
