Improved performance of bio-lubricant by nanoparticles additives

Nanoparticle additives are proposed to improve lubricant performance under boundary lubrication sliding, through tribofilms formation. Tribofilms consisting of the elements of the nanoparticles (NPs) could form on the sliding surface providing necessary FM and reduction in wear volume loss. The key...
