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.

 

At the beginning of an RVS treatment, the two friction surfaces become finely treated (super finishing). Due to the local and momentary high temperatures caused by contacts, the RVS particles are "glued" on the crystals of the surface layer of the metal. Simultaneously, the RVS compund and the metal form a shell in the microscopic holes of the friction surface.

 

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.

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.
