English term or phrase: soaping point
Jag översätter bruksanvisningarna för en cyklonavskiljare, och då står det så här under Smörjmedelsegenskaper:

Lubricant characteristics: Type of grease:
Mill penetration at 25°C (ASTM) 265-295
Dropping point >180°C
Soaping point Lithium (high performance bearing grease)

Vad kan man översätta Soaping point med här?

Greasing/grease points / smörjning för fettpunkter: Högpresterande litiumfett


Explanation:
There is a missing colon: everywhere and a parenthesis has been placed on a wrong place, this cause the confuusion.

This is not a soaping point but a grease point

Lithium (high performance bearing grease)

Reference: lithium complex soap thickener

Reference information:
It is a highly versatile, multipurpose grease invented in the 1940s. The product consists of mineral or synthetic oil and hardened castor oil fatty acids called lithium stearate or lithium salt. Lithium soap-based grease:
Has a wide temperature range
Is very mechanically stable
Has a high water resistance
In almost all industrial sectors, it is the most preferred bearing grease.

Benefits of a Lithium Soap-Based Grease
Lithium soap is the thickener that turns the base oil into grease. So, it is best to compare lithium soap-based grease to those using other thickeners, such as sodium and calcium soap thickeners. In most cases, lithium soap-based greases offer so many advantages that the additional cost is easily offset by increased performance.

A few of its benefits include:
A high dropping point of 190-200°C (374-392°F)
Depending on the base oil, a good low-temperature function
Perfect for almost all types of bearings
Highly water-resistant
A high degree of shear stability
Exceptional thermal stability
Long-term storage stability
A long useful life
Pumpable
Smooth structure
Available as an extreme pressure (EP) grease, which adds high load and anti-wear abilities.

Grease Components:
In short, three main components of greases are:

Base oil
Thickener system, and
Performance additives.
So, Base oil is a liquid lubricant, thickener used to convert liquid oil to semi-fluid (gel), and additives to enhance performance and protection. For example, common grease additives are anti-corrosion, metal deactivators, antioxidants, and performance enhancement additives like anti-wear properties and other characteristics.

Grease Composition:
Base oil 75-98%
About 2-20% of thickener system (thickener transforms a liquid base oil into a grease) [2]
0-10% of additives
Lithium Grease
Lithium grease was invented in the early 1940s. It was made by reacting lithium hydroxide with fatty acids. At this time, modern lithium soap (thickener) consists of 12HSA (12-hydroxystearic acid, or triglycerides) with lithium hydroxide monohydrate in a base fluid.
