“…Figure 7a,b showed papaya peel-derived CuO NPs have different particle sizes and proved that the biosynthesized CuO NPs were densely agglomerated in lump as illustrated by SEM images with a diameter of 277-500 nm. The agglomeration of the nanoparticles was due to the high surface tension [36]. As reported in the literature, CuO NPs have a high tendency to aggregate in ultrapure water during the preparation step before being subjected to TEM measurement [37,38].…”

In recent years, the green chemistry based-approach for the synthesis of nanoparticles has shown tremendous promise as an alternative to the costly and environmentally unfriendly chemically synthesized nanoparticles. In this study, copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) were synthesized through a green approach using the water extract of papaya (Carica papaya L.) peel biowaste as reducing as well as stabilizing agents, and copper (II) nitrate trihydrate salt as a precursor. The structural properties, crystallinity, purity, morphology, and the chemical composition of as-synthesized CuO NPs were analyzed using different analytical methods. The analytical results revealed that the synthesized CuO was observed as spherical-like in particles with measured sizes ranging from 85–140 nm and has monoclinic crystalline phase with good purity. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic results confirmed the formation of the Cu-O bond through the involvement of the potential functional groups of biomolecules in papaya peel extract. Regarding photocatalytic activity, the green-synthesized CuO NPs were employed as a photocatalyst for the degradation of palm oil mill effluent (POME) beneath the ultraviolet (UV) light and results showed 66% degradation of the POME was achieved after 3 h exposure to UV irradiation. The phytotoxicity experiment using mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) seed also showed a reduction of toxicity after photodegradation.

“…A significant challenge in employing nanoparticles in lubricants is linked to their dispersion stability in these fluids. This is because nanoparticles easily agglomerate due to their high surface tension, forming non-dispersible aggregate clusters [38]. The aggregation of nanoparticles can effectively limit the nanolubricant's lubricity at the contact area, and could even increase friction in some cases [39,40].…”

“…This could be done using many techniques, such as physical vapor deposition, liquid chemical methods, laser ablation, and submerged arc synthesis systems [47,48]. However, this method is limited by its high cost and small-scale production rates [38]. In the two-step method, the nanoparticles are first prepared separately.…”

“…For studies regarding engine nanolubricants, researchers investigated many techniques to enhance the dispersion stability in terms of one-or two-step methods. In a recent study by Mello [38], the dispersion stability of CuO nanoparticles in the base lubricant of A surface modification for the nanoparticles through dispersing agents is conducted to stabilize the particles in the base medium for the two preparation methods. This is to prevent particle aggregation and sedimentation.…”

Recent Advances in Preparation and Testing Methods of Engine-Based Nanolubricants: A State-of-the-Art Review

Reducing power losses in engines is considered a key parameter of their efficiency improvement. Nanotechnology, as an interface technology, is considered one of the most promising strategies for this purpose. As a consumable liquid, researchers have studied nanolubricants through the last decade as potential engine oil. Nanolubricants were shown to cause a considerable reduction in the engine frictional and thermal losses, and fuel consumption as well. Despite that, numerous drawbacks regarding the quality of the processed nanolubricants were discerned. This includes the dispersion stability of these fluids and the lack of actual engine experiments. It has been shown that the selection criteria of nanoparticles to be used as lubricant additives for internal combustion engines is considered a complex process. Many factors have to be considered to investigate and follow up with their characteristics. The selection methodology includes tribological and rheological behaviours, thermal stability, dispersion stability, as well as engine performance. Through the last decade, studies on nanolubricants related to internal combustion engines focused only on one to three of these factors, with little concern towards the other factors that would have a considerable effect on their final behaviour. In this review study, recent works concerning nanolubricants are discussed and summarized. A complete image of the designing parameters for this approach is presented, to afford an effective product as engine lubricant.
