Lubricants play a vital role in reducing friction between, and wear and tear of operating parts in different machines. Sometimes, movement of certain mechanical parts is possible only by the use of lubricants. This property to reduce friction is known as lubricity. A good lubricant is expected to possess different properties, namely high boiling point, high viscosity index, corrosion prevention ability, thermal stability, low freezing point and high resistivity to oxidation. Lubricants are known to increase operational life of mechanical parts, thereby providing higher efficiency output. Lubricants are employed for the smooth operation of mechanical parts and to remove residue deposited over them.

Disc duplication is the method of copying content of master media onto recordable discs such as CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray discs.
