Few layer graphene to reduce wear and friction on sliding steel surfaces (2013, background): “Graphene and other carbon-based nanomaterials are used to enhance protective properties of different lubricants [17–19].”
Reduced wear and friction enabled by graphene layers on sliding steel surfaces in dry nitrogen (2013, background): “At present, using various forms of carbon-based nanomaterials (i.e., nanotube, nano-onions, nano-diamond, etc.) to reduce the wear in general is gaining high momentum [21–24].”
