Abstract
The relation of viscosity and solid concentration to the lubricant effect of aqueous solutions of methylcellulose was investigated. Lubricity increased directly with solid concentration, while the high viscosity at greater methylcellulose concentrations prevented any further lubricity increase. Glycerin, polyethylene glycol 400, and propylene glycol are effective lubricants over a wide concentration range under the conditions tested.
