Nanoparticles acting as additives to improve the tribological performance of base fluids have
attracted much attention in the last several decades to lower wear loss, reduce the frictional …

Friction and wear are ubiquitous, from nano-electro-mechanical systems in biomedicine to
large-scale integrated electric propulsion in aircraft carriers. Applications of nanomaterials …

Abstract Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are among the materials that have been
consistently developed in the field of nanomaterials in recent years, and have become …

Nano additives have been widely proven to significantly improve the tribological properties
of traditional greases, and the synergistic effect of multiple nanomaterials to improve the …

It has been established in literature that the addition of nanoparticles to lubricants at an
optimum concentration results in a lower coefficient of friction compared to lubricants with no …

Conventional petroleum-based lubricant resources are depleting rapidly, and their utilization
severely threatens the environment. Environmental sustainability emphasizes the need for …

Engineering the surface and interface of nanomaterials is critical for enhancing interfacial
compatibility and dispersion stability in liquid. In this paper, we report dialkyldithiophosphate …

One of the key reasons for the failure of lube oils is their thermal degradation owing to
elevated heat conditions in vehicle engines. In this study, the thermal degradation studies of …

Owing to the significance of improving fuel economy, reducing emissions, and extending the
durability of engine components, this study focused on the tribological performance of nano …

Abstract Herein, the hierarchical MXene@ Ag hybrids were successfully prepared via an in-
situ reduction. Moreover, the influences of MXene@ Ag hybrids on thermal, mechanical, and …
