The Magic of Molykote: A Tale of Unbelievable Lubrication Mastery”
In the vast realm of innovation, certain stories transcend time and stand as legends of their own. The captivating journey of Alfred Sonntag, the founder of Molykote, is one such legendary narrative. It’s a tale that not only showcases the astounding lubricating prowess of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) but also how it miraculously transformed a potentially catastrophic scenario into a dazzling display of its magic.
Alfred Sonntag’s experiment was nothing short of audacious. He made a bold decision—to drain every last drop of oil, which included a small quantity of our revered MOLYKOTE®, from the crankcase of his car. Then, he did the unimaginable—he took his car for a drive, covering several miles with an oil-deprived engine. The outcome? Astonishingly, no damage, no engine hiccups, just an effortlessly smooth ride.
But here’s where the enchantment truly unfurls: even though the oil had completely disappeared, the MOLYKOTE® endured. It gracefully coated the vital moving components of the car, ensuring their uninterrupted operation while averting any harm.
This incredible episode unfolded 75 years ago, and our journey from those modest beginnings with MoS2 has been nothing short of extraordinary. Our commitment to lubrication innovation and expertise has only intensified over the years.
