The word "grease" originates from the early Latin word "crassus," meaning fat. For our purposes, in this Special Issue, we will be focusing on lubricating grease, for publication in the eponymous journal Lubricants. According to ASTM, lubricating grease may be defined as "a solid-to-semi-fluid product of dispersed thickening agents in a liquid lubricant". Other functional ingredients, such anti-wear and extreme pressure additives, may be included, with the overall goal of inducing special properties/functionalities. Grease is a very complex lubricant. We have never had a Special Issue focusing on this key product, and lubricating greases are often underrepresented in the technical literature. In recent years, there has been significant progress in research on greases, ranging from the specific chemical formulation of greases for special applications to how grease interacts with various surfaces, tribological advances in grease properties, new techniques for grease property measurements, etc. Recently, greases have also been evolving, as they and play a key role in the lubrication of electric vehicles. We aim to select the top research avenues and papers worldwide related to lubricating greases to form this compilation. This Special Issue wishes to be the first of its kind, and we plan to make this an annual exercise, where our compendium aims to discuss the latest developments worldwide encompassing all areas related to greases. 606 $aHistory of engineering & technology$2bicssc 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $aadhesion 610 $aASTM D2596 610 $aBauer's model 610 $abio-based grease 610 $aCNTs 610 $acoefficient of friction 610 $acone penetration 610 $acontact angle 610 $adifferential scanning calorimetry (DSC) 610 $adriveline lubricant 610 $aelastohydrodynamic lubrication 610 $aelectric motors 610 $aelectric vehicles 610 $aelectrification 610 $aelectromagnetic field 610 $aenergy efficiency 610 $aequivalent viscosity 610 $aEVs 610 $afilm thickness 610 $afour-ball tester 610 $afretting 610 $afriction and wear 610 $afriction measurements 610 $aglass transition 610 $agrease 610 $agrease consistency 610 $agrease degradation 610 $agrease friction 610 $agrease lubrication 610 $agrease testing 610 $agrease weld load 610 $agreases 610 $aheat dissipation 610 $aheterogeneous crystallization 610 $ahybrid bearings 610 $ahybrid vehicle 610 $aisothermal 610 $alubricating grease 610 $an/a 610 $anoise, vibration and harshness (NVH) 610 $anon-Newtonian 610 $aPAO 610 $apoint contact 610 $apolyurea thickener 610 $apressure gradient 610 $arheology 610 $arheometer testing 610 $ashearing 610 $asliding 610 $aspeed ramp up 610 $atackiness 610 $athermal properties 610 $atribological behavior 610 $atribology properties 610 $awear 610 $ayield stress 615 7$aHistory of engineering & technology 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aShah$b Raj$4edt$01323491 702 $aWoydt$b Mathias$4edt 702 $aTung$b Simon C$4edt 702 $aRosenkranz$b Andreas$4edt 702 $aShah$b Raj$4oth 702 $aWoydt$b Mathias$4oth 702 $aTung$b Simon C$4oth 702 $aRosenkranz$b Andreas$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910576882803321 996 $aGrease$93035622 997 $aUNINA
