Use of Pyrene for Quantitative Fluorescence Observation of Li-Grease around EHL Contacts

This paper presents a simple approach for the use of pyrene as fluorescence dye for the observation of the EHL contacts and behavior of lubricants without natural fluorescence properties. Dependence of the light emission of pyrene on its concentration was studied and also, specific emission and exci...
