see the words "supposedly" and "anecdotes."
There are reports on this forum of similar situations to
@Mainia 's, as well as other forums where people reported leaks while using mos2--this is anecdotal, just like tigeo's "works fine for me." The only scientific paper I found was on the use of MoS2 as a gasket sealer, which caused galvanic corrosion and leaks in certain vellum gaskets.
It's hard to say what the chemist at Summit was referring to.
Some materials are said (by o-ring manufacturers) to cause swelling with mos2, such as EPDM. My uneducated guess is that yes, certain motors use seal materials which are not compatible with moly, especially in larger concentrations than you'd find in off the shelf oils.
I am not sure if motor use conditions will cause MoS2 to oxidize into MoO2 or MoO3 but those also have their own, preferred seal materials.
