HydroGraph's Graphene Extends Operating Life of Lubricants by More Than 24 Times

Retrieved on: 
Thursday, June 22, 2023

Most lubricants over time degrade, requiring machine shut down and replacement and disposal of lubricants, but the low coefficient of friction of lubricants with HydroGraph’s graphene reduces mechanical wear, break downs and downtime, while extending the lubricant lifecycle.

Key Points: 
  • Most lubricants over time degrade, requiring machine shut down and replacement and disposal of lubricants, but the low coefficient of friction of lubricants with HydroGraph’s graphene reduces mechanical wear, break downs and downtime, while extending the lubricant lifecycle.
  • For example, an average car in the US requires engine oil to be changed 4 times a year.
  • Without graphene, the base oil could no longer provide adequate lubrication and reached a failure point after three trials.
  • This prevented metal-on-metal contact leading to reduced wear and boundary layer friction, increasing the operating life of base oil by more than 24 times.
