Graphene's natural lubricity, combined with its inert nature, is showing incredible promise in both combustion engines as well as general equipment. Preliminary tests with the GM Automotive Center of Excellence at UOIT have shown a decrease in frictional loss (metal on metal wear) of up to 55% when CarbonEra Platinum is added to base mineral oil - tests with oils are ongoing, and will expand into greases and other lubricants. Once optimized, practical application of these oils & lubricants will result in multiple benefits, including:
- decreased wear & maintenance
- increased equipment lifespan and longer-lasting engines
- decreased fuel consumption; decreased emissions
- decreased downtime / increased productivity
We are currently open to collaboration with oil manufacturers and oil research firms to finalize a commercially viable & cost effective graphene enhanced Oil/G formulation targeting mass market utilization.
