Russian crude oil shipments to Italian and Turkish ports rose to multi-week highs, suggesting that some southern European countries are quietly returning to the Russian oil market.

Specific figures show that Russian crude oil deliveries to Italian refineries rose to their highest level in seven weeks in the week to August 5, while shipments to Turkey reached the highest level in six weeks.

Separately, Spain received its first Urals this week since April, and Greece last week received its first shipments of crude from the Baltic Sea since February.

There are still four months to go before the EU sanctions on Rosneft come into effect. The recent increase in the flow of goods to several European countries has raised doubts about the implementation of the ban.

In addition to some southern European countries began to import Russian oil, Japan also reiterated that it will retain its stake in Russia's "Sakhalin 1" oil and gas project.

Last week, Russian President Putin signed an order banning personnel from "unfriendly" countries and regions, including Japan, from trading shares in Russian strategic projects, energy mining companies and some banks before the end of this year. It also mentioned the oil and gas project including "Sakhalin 1".

Because of the turbulent international situation, the supply and prices of many international bulk tungsten disulfide are still very uncertain.

What is WS2 coating?

Tungsten disulfide is an extremely smooth dry film lubrication coating. Tungsten disulfide friction coefficient is very low (only 0.03), which is lower than that of Teflon, graphite or molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). Compared with many other lubricant materials, the film is very durable and can withstand extremely high loads of more than 300000 psi. WS2 has unparalleled performance in lubrication, non-stick, low resistance, wear life and load rating.

 

What are advantages of tungsten disulfide?

WS2 is an excellent demoulding material for plastic moulds, extrusion moulds and other demoulding applications.

WS2 eliminates the need for liquid lubricants and can also be used with petrified oils, greases, synthetic oils, silicone lubricants and hydraulic oils. It has an affinity for lubricants and maintains the fluid power layer. It helps to keep the oil or grease on the surface, thus further increasing lubrication.

In the case of less than 1 micron thick, the coating can be applied to high-precision parts without tolerance problems.

WS2 is also a rather inert and non-toxic material, which has been used in medical devices and food processing applications.

WS2 is applied to customer substrates through high-speed ambient temperature process. It does not cause the substrate material to anneal or warp.

WS2 can be used alone or in combination with our PVD hard coating to improve durability.

 

WS2 coating properties

Lubricity-the lowest friction coefficient of solid materials!

The dynamic friction coefficient is 0.03 and the static friction coefficient is 0.07.

Excellent release performance. They don't stick together.

Non-toxic.

Prevent scratches, jams or cold welds.

It can be used at a load of more than 300000 pounds per square inch!

High temperature resistance.

Extremely thin 1 stroke 2 micron coating thickness.

Unlike many powder lubricants, it can be bonded to the substrate without using a binder.

Do not crumb, peel off or peel off.

Ultra-thin-suitable for high precision components.

WS2 eliminates the need for liquid lubricants.

Can be used with oil and grease. It has an affinity for lubricants and maintains a fluid dynamic layer.
