What are the Types of Nanomaterials Used in Lubrication?
Several types of nanomaterials are used to enhance lubrication efficiency:
- Metallic Nanoparticles: Such as silver and copper nanoparticles, known for their excellent thermal conductivity and anti-wear properties. - Metal Oxide Nanoparticles: Including zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, which provide high thermal stability and anti-friction characteristics. - Carbon-Based Nanomaterials: Such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and fullerenes, offering remarkable strength, electrical conductivity, and lubrication properties.
