By the way, boron nitride having a small average particle diameter often forms secondary particles by aggregating some of the particles, similarly to powder containing general fine particles. In the present invention, it is important to measure the size of the secondary particles, particularly the maximum diameter of the secondary particles, together with the measurement of the average particle size. The maximum diameter of the secondary particles can be facilitated using an optical microscope. That is, when a small amount of grease containing boron nitride is sandwiched between two slide glasses and observed with an optical microscope at a magnification of 200 to 400 times while transmitting light, secondary particles in which fine particles are aggregated are particles. Inside is dark. At this time, those having a bright color inside of the particles are not secondary particles, but are primary particles without aggregation of the particles. The major axis and minor axis (diameter in the direction perpendicular to the major axis) of the secondary particles in the visual field are measured, and the maximum value of the minor axis is defined as the maximum diameter of the secondary particles.

That is, when hexagonal boron nitride is contained in a grease composition and actually used as a grease, in order to exhibit the above-described sliding performance inherent to boron nitride,
The larger the particle, the better the particle is, on the other hand, so that it can easily enter between the two sliding surfaces. Further, the primary particles of boron nitride generally have a flat shape, but some of them may aggregate to form secondary particles.
Since the secondary particles are not flat compared to the primary particles, they do not easily enter between the sliding surfaces, and as a result, the friction characteristics of the grease deteriorate. In addition, there is a problem that the base grease does not sufficiently penetrate into the gaps between the primary particles constituting the secondary particles, and air tends to remain inside the secondary particles.
If air remains, the amount of the base grease around the boron nitride becomes insufficient. As a result, a sufficient amount of grease is not supplied to the sliding surface, and a phenomenon occurs in which the friction coefficient fluctuates.

As described above, with respect to the particles of hexagonal boron nitride in the grease composition, there are appropriate sizes for the particle size and the secondary particle size as a powder aggregate, and According to the results of the experimental study, the average particle size is 1 μm or more and 30 μm or less, and the maximum size of the secondary particles is 30 μm or less, preferably 20 μm or less. When the average particle diameter is less than 1 μm or more than 30 μm, the particles are too small to exhibit sufficient boron nitride-specific sliding properties, or boron nitride particles are not supplied between sliding surfaces. For the reason, the coefficient of friction of the grease does not decrease sufficiently or stably,
A problem may occur that a low coefficient of friction cannot be maintained over a long period of time. Regarding the maximum diameter of secondary particles,
The smaller this is, the more the fluctuation of the friction coefficient is suppressed, and if the maximum diameter of the secondary particles is 30 μm or less, preferably 20 μm or less, the stability of frictional resistance is further increased, and stable sliding characteristics are achieved over a long period of time. Good because it can. It is apparent that the lower limit of the maximum diameter of the secondary particles does not need to be specified from the gist of the present invention.

If the amount is less than 0.5% by weight, a sufficient amount of boron nitride is not supplied to the sliding surface, and if the amount exceeds 20% by weight, the viscosity of the grease composition becomes too high to exhibit sufficient lubricating performance. Since the required sliding characteristics are different depending on the application, it is selected for each application within the above range. In particular, in the range of 1 to 10% by weight, it is used for a wide range of applications, and a low friction coefficient is stably achieved. It is suitable.
