Nye Rheolube 363

Today’s vast array of electromechanical devices in semiconductor wafer fabrication, flat panel, solar panel and LCD manufacturing equipment places increasingly challenging demands on the lubricants used to keep them running. Lubricants today must be able to handle higher loads, higher temperatures, extend component operating life and improve productivity. At the same time, they must also eliminate or minimize airborne particle and mist generation which could fog optics or contaminate wafers.

For more than 50 years, Nye has been working with NASA and leaders in the commercial aerospace industry, qualifying lubricants for mission critical components while addressing problems like outgassing, contamination, and starvation. Outgassing reduces the effectiveness of a lubricant and can contaminate nearby components.

Much of this research is now paying off in other industries where Nye is applying this technology to design lubricants for uses in components and sub-assemblies, including the automotive industry.

Outgassing reduces the effectiveness of a lubricant and can contaminate nearby components.

Much of this research is now paying off in other industries where Nye is applying this technology to design lubricants for uses in components and sub-assemblies for cleanrooms, laboratories and semiconductor fabrication facilities, both in vacuum and non-vacuum applications. Nye has recently expanded its product line to offer a full complement of lubricants for high vacuum, cleanroom and vacuum pump applications.

NyeClean 5097R Attributes

The NyeClean® line has been developed with its focus on a wide range of general purpose applications in lower vacuum cleanroom environments. In this product line, you will find the broadest range of lubricants developed for motion control applications like bearings, linear guides, and ball screws. Some of the benefits of the NyeClean® product line include Low Particle Generation, Wear Prevention and Low Torque.

NyeClean 5097R - Certification and Ultrafiltration

Nye tests and certifies the vacuum stability (E-595) of each batch of NyeClean 5097R. Other vacuum lubricants list only “typical properties,” which do not warrant that vapor pressure on the label matches the actual vapor pressure of the lubricant. And most often, it doesn’t.

Additionally, NyeClean 5097R is subjected to a proprietary “ultrafiltration process” which removes microscopic particulates and homogenizes agglomerated thickeners. It is packaged in ultraclean containers in a Class 100 (ISO Class 5) mini-environment.

NyeTorr 6200 - The Right Lubricant for the Right Application

NyeTorr 6200 was designed to improve the performance and extend the operating life of high-speed bearings, linear guides for motion control, vacuum pumps, and other components used in semicon manufacturing equipment designed for processes such as deposition, ion implantation, etching, photolithography, and wafer measurement and inspection.

A Pennzane (multiply alkylated cyclopentane “MAC”) based grease thickened with PTFE, NyeTorr 6200 is manufactured to exhibit very low vapor pressure and excellent wear resistance properties, good for heavily-loaded devices and designs requiring limited or oscillating motion, and is capable of sustained operating temperatures up to 150°C. Pennzane fluid-based lubricants also accept a wide variety of additives and are compatible with many of today’s design materials, making them the right choice for many applications. Nye was the first to formulate oils and greases from Pennzane synthesized hydrocarbon synthetic fluids and is Shell Global Solutions’ exclusive authorized global distributor of all Pennzane fluids.

NyeTorr 6200 - From A Unique Line of Lubricants

NyeTorr 6200 comes from a unique line of lubricants manufactured by Nye Lubricants, Inc. of Fairhaven, Massachusetts. They were designed for the rigorous demands of the Semiconductor Production Environment. These products have been developed with several key parameters in mind: Low Outgassing, High Temperature Stability, Aggressive Chemical Resistance, Wear Protection, and Cleanliness. The raw materials used in NyeTorr® formulations are tightly controlled on a molecular level to limit the Vapor Pressure, Outgassing, and Contamination. Nye tests and certifies the vapor pressure of each batch to guarantee that the vapor pressure on the label matches the actual vapor pressure of the lubricant. Additionally, all NyeTorr® lubricants are subjected to a proprietary “Ultrafiltration Process” which removes microscopic particulates and homogenizes agglomerated thickeners.  NyeTorr® is a registered trademark of Nye Lubricants, Inc.

NyeTorr 6300 - The Right Lubricant for the Right Application

NyeTorr 6300 was designed to improve the performance and extend the operating life of high-speed bearings, linear guides for motion control, vacuum pumps, and other components used in semicon manufacturing equipment designed for processes such as deposition, ion implantation, etching, photolithography, and wafer measurement and inspection.

NyeTorr 6300 is a PTFE thickened, perfluoropolyether (PFPE) grease with very good vapor pressure and the widest temperature range available, from -65°C to 250°C. The inertness of PFPE lubricants makes them compatible with nearly all materials*, but also means low solubility. Additives designed to reduce corrosion or wear are not typically blended into PFPE lubricants.
