Vacuum grease is a lubricant with low volatility and is used for applications in low pressure environments. Lubricants with higher volatility would evaporate, causing two problems:
- They would not be present to provide lubrication.
- They would make lowering the pressure below their vapor pressure difficult.
In electronics manufacturing processes, vacuum grease is often used to prevent corrosion.
