Abstract

A technique of lubricant modification using graphene is presented. The experimental results of the determination of the tribological characteristics inherent in the modified lubricant show that, when 0.1% of multilayered graphene is added to the complex calcium lubricant, the diameter of the wear spot exhibits a 50% decrease, the scuffing index shows a 2.9-fold increase, and the carrying capacity increases 3.8 times.
