The development of a new class of metalworking fluids (MWFs) with unique properties is essential to achieve energy-efficient and sustainable growth. Ionic liquids (ILs) are molten …
Tribological performance of polyalphaolefin 32, PAO, is investigated by adding two nanomaterials (graphene nanoplatelets, GnP, and hexagonal boron nitride nanoparticles, h …
Hybrid nanostructure combinations of ionic liquids (ILs) and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanosheets are proposed as additives to lubricants to enhance their tribological …
Can ZDDP (a common antiwear additive) be replaced with ionic liquids (ILs) and nanoparticle (NPs)-based hybrid nanolubricant additives? To answer this question, three …
This work investigates on the plausible interfacial mechanisms of PTFE (submicron particle) SMPs with the metal counterface during the growth of PTFE tribo-film. A series of submicron …
This investigation demonstrates the effect of a structural hybrid of spherical silica and lamellar molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) combined to form a sphere used as an antifriction …
