Abstract:Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a promising lubricant additive for enhanced engine efficiency. In this study, pure base engine oil 10 W-30 was improved with titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles at different concentrations and experimentally evaluated with the scope of tribological behavior improvement. The tribological tests were performed at ambient temperature as well as at 75°C using a four ball tribometer for 30 minutes. Due to their small particle size (approx. 21 nm), the TiO2 nanoparticles were properly dis… Show more
