Oil lubricant tribological behaviour improvement through dispersion of graphene additive

Our research project focuses on enhancing the performance of grease lubricants utilized in the mining industry through the incorporation of graphene nanoparticles. Graphene is a cutting-edge material known for its exceptional lubricating properties. The intern(s) will collaborate closely with Nova Graphene Canada to synthesize and test these advanced lubricants. The expected outcome is the development of high-efficiency lubrication solutions that can significantly reduce friction and energy consumption in mining operations. This innovation has the potential to revolutionize lubrication technology, benefiting Nova Graphene Canada by positioning them as leaders in the field and offering environmentally friendly solutions for various industrial applications.
