Titanium dioxide has many purposes in both food and product development.
Oil seals come in various shapes to fit the machines and substances to be sealed.
Figure 2 shows the structure and the names of the various components of the most typical oil seal.
The functions of the various components are also indicated in Table 1.
Usually, these oil seals are used to seal lubricating oil or grease and contain it within the application, so that moving parts such as bearings are continually supplied with enough lubrication. However, such seals are also used for sealing other liquids, gases, and solids, such as powders or granules.
There are different types of spark plugs available on the market, each designed for specific engine types and operating conditions. The most common types are copper, platinum, and iridium spark plugs. Copper spark plugs are the most affordable and provide good performance for everyday driving. Platinum spark plugs offer better longevity and performance, while iridium spark plugs are the most durable and provide the best spark performance.
An oil seal has two tasks: Keeping the lubricant in and keeping dirt and contaminants out of rotating components. This separation must be accomplished between surfaces in relative motion, usually a shaft or bearing inner ring and a housing. With correct installation, oil seals can also prevent seal leakage and maintain the lubricity of a bearing to ensure that the rotary shaft and its bearings remain fully functional.
Oil seals work by squeezing and retaining lubricant in a thin layer between the lip and the shaft. Perfect sealing is ensured by the hydrodynamic action of the rotating shaft, which in turn produces a slight pump action.
