Abstract:
A method for reducing a friction coefficient adjacent a lubricated surface, and a lubricant composition for reducing a friction coefficient between lubricated surfaces. The method includes providing an amount of metal-containing dispersed in a fully formulated lubricant composition containing a base oil of lubricating viscosity, wherein the nanoparticles have an average particles size ranging from about 1 to about 10 nanometers. The lubricant composition containing the metal-containing nanoparticles is applied to a surface to be lubricated.
Abstract:
A lubricant composition comprising a detergent and a base oil comprising less than about 3% by weight of tetracycloparaffins is disclosed. Methods of making and using the composition are also disclosed.

Abstract:
A method for reducing friction coefficients and wear between lubricated surfaces. The method includes providing an amount of an oil-soluble nanospherical component derived from a photo-crosslinkable poly(2-cinnamoyloxyalkyl acrylate) core and a diblock acrylate copolymer corona in a fully formulated lubricant composition containing a base oil of lubricating viscosity. The nanospherical component has a core diameter ranging from about 10 to about 100 nanometers. The lubricant composition containing the nanospherical component is applied to a surface to be lubricated.
