Graphene Lubricants
Our graphene oil are ultra-high purity graphene-based oil additives which will improve gas mileage and engine life by reducing friction. It offers excellent solution dispersion, excellent shelf life in oil, low loading requirement per liter and nano-sized particles won’t clog filters.
NTherma’s Graphene Lubricants are ultra-high purity graphene nano-platelets for use as lubricant additive materials. Graphene enhances the lubricant properties of base engine oil, helping to improve engine performance at various operating temperatures. Graphene-based lubricant additives improve wear resistance, extend engine life, increase fuel efficiency, and increase engine power. With high surface area and high affinity for metal surfaces, graphene nano particles enable penetration and coating of wear crevices (surface asperities) forming a thin protective film between moving mechanical parts.
Our patent-pending manufacturing method for graphene produces controlled particle size for consistent and predictable qualities such as lubricity, viscosity, and most importantly, stable suspension and dispersion in oil.
