Figure 6.16 shows friction vs. sliding velocity for a mineral oil with and without nano-boric acid powders. As is clear, the friction coefficient is much lower for oil containing nano-boric acid. Note that the difference is particularly significant at low sliding velocities, where much severe metal-to-metal contact occurs. Overall, the addition of nanometer-sized boric acid powders significantly reduces the friction coefficients of both PAO and mineral base oils. [Pg.219]

Just like other lamellar solids, boric acid is also self-lubricating. Its lubrication mechanism is similar to that of the other solid lubricants. It can be manufactured as very fine nanopowders. Because of their light weight, these nano-powders can easily be dispersed in oils and used as colloidal anti-friction and -wear additives. Tribological studies have confirmed that they have very high capacity to reduce friction and wear. TOF-SIMS and XPS studies... [Pg.221]
