A lubricant is a substance, usually oil based, that is used to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact. Controlling friction has led to safer, faster transport as well as many medical innovations. Lubricants can be made of mineral oil, synthetic oil, solids or organic compounds.
Oil-based lubricants are commonly used in the form of motor oil. Automotive lubricants protect internal combustion engines. In heavy industry, organic lubricants are used to separate moving parts in a system by forming a thin layer between the part. This has the benefit of reducing friction, surface fatigue and operating noise.
In addition to industrial applications, lubricants are used for a variety of purposes such as in cooking and baking to prevent food from sticking to the pan; medical examinations and vehicle lubricants.
