What
is RVS compound The RVS compound is manufactured of natural minerals
and basic oil that eases the use of the mineral mixture and is compatible
with practically all the lubricants that are used nowadays. The core of the RVS Technology® is that we have been able to turn a natural process
of mineral rections in the opposite direction, thus creating a new type
of surfaces. As the RVS Compound is made of natural minerals, as it is an active compound in certain conditions, it can be called a geoactivator. The newness of the RVS Technology® lies in the fact that
1.
Worn
ferrous surfaces of different equipment can be replaced by a new ferrosilicate
surface that resists wear and corrosion better than the surface of the
original metal.
2.
The
ferrosilicate surface grows on the friction and sliding surfaces in
the relationship with the friction energy secreted on the surface and
the amount of the RVS compound carried to the surface, as a result of
which the surface may even regain its original dimension. 3.
The
ferrosilicate is not a traditional coating in the sense that it does not form
a sharp boundary between itself and the metal. RVS Technology® is not just a new method of fighting with wear but
a way of controlling it! It means that machine parts can be maintained in
operational condition for a lot longer period than previously. Core of RVS Technology® The basic application of the RVS Technology® is meant for protecting and repairing different machines
and their parts and engines without disassembling them. The compound
can be used with most oil types, and no chemical or other reaction takes
place between the compound and the oil. The compound does not change
the viscosity or other properties of the oil. In other words, the RVS
compound is not an oil additive. The RVS compound (repairing and restoring compound) is a fine-milled mixture of numerous minerals that contains plenty of different additives that are necessary for the atom exchange reaction that takes place between the compound and the metal of the surface structure. The mineral is mixed with basic oil to get a gel-type concentrate that can be applied with almost all the oil types. The gel is then mixed with the lubricant used in the object being treated. The role of the lubricant is then merely to deliver the active components of the RVS compound to the friction zones where it starts reacting with the surfaces.
This is the way of forming a ferrosilicate layer on
the surfaces of the sliding pair that has grown over the crystals of
the surface layer of the metal. Thus, there is a contact of two ferrosilicate
surfaces instead of a contact of two metal surfaces. The thermodynamic
processes that take place on the friction surfaces contribute to the
growth of the ferrosilicate layer in the zones where the metal has been
worn most. The process ceases gradually as the clearances approach the
optimal level in the whole area of the friction surface. When the RVS
compound is absorbed to the metal, its crystal structure is improved,
which strengthens the surface layer. It follows from the facts presented above that the
RVS Technology® cannot be tested by methods for testing the
properties of oils but one has to take the requirements of the RVS Technology® into account when testing it. Read
more on the testing methods here Basic Figures of Ferrosilicate Surfaces - Coefficient of linear thermal expansion: 13.6-14.2 - Friction coefficient: 0.003-0.007 (dry without
lubricant) - Micro hardness: 690-710 HV - Shock resistance: 50 kg/mm² - High corrosion resistance - Clear isolating and heat-proof properties Conclusion and prospects of development RVS Technology
is a revolutionary thing, the application possibilities of which in
industry and transport are huge. The traditional way of thinking about
lubrication will have to be changed on a large front, which in its turn
will cause opposition to changes in many people, including specialists. The large-scale
use of such a technology will take years, but due to its economic and
ecological benefits, its penetration is guaranteed. The biggest benefits
may have those who are able to use the RVS Technology among the first,
no matter whether we talk about a private consumer with his or her car,
maintenance companies or an engine or gearbox manufacturer. |
