Tribological properties enhancement through organic carbon nanotubes as nanoparticle additives in boundary lubrication conditions

This paper investigates the effect of inclusion of formulated organic nanoparticles of Eichhornia crassipes carbon nanotubes (EC-CNTs) in two different base lubricant (rapeseed and mineral oils) as lubricant additives. The use of inorganic ZDDP anti-wear additive was employed for comparison. The Ram...
