Lubrication Characteristics of Oils Containing Nanoadditives: Influencing Parameters, Market Scenario and Advancements
Friction and wear being widely associated with the different mechanical systems contributes to substantial loss of energy. Different solutions have been proposed to reduce the energy loss caused by friction. With developments in the area of nanotechnology, the use of nanoparticles in lubrication has gained much interest in the recent years. This paper deals with the role of nanoadditives in lubricants in improving the tribological properties, thereby helping in reducing the losses. Different types of additives and their functional performance have been discussed. Also, special focus has been laid down on various parameters that influence the tribological characteristics. Moreover, the market scenario of lubricating oils and their environmental impact have also been discussed. From the overall study and the research findings, it came to the fore that a careful selection of all the influencing parameters is required to obtain better tribological characteristics. Moreover, there is lot of scope in understanding the various mechanisms of these nanoparticles in the oils and the synergetic effect of various nanoadditives.
