A corrosion-resistant wet film lubricant composition includes a lubricating pigment, an oil, and a thickener. The lubricating pigment comprises graphene platelets and is dispersed in the oil, and the thickener thickens the wet film lubricant. The graphene platelets are oxidized and functionalized with a silane. In another example, a method of producing a corrosion-resistant lubricant includes oxidizing exfoliated graphene to produce oxidized graphene platelets, functionalizing the oxidized graphene platelets with a silane to produce functionalized graphene platelets, and dispersing the functionalized graphene platelets in a lubricant composition, wherein the lubricant composition comprises an oil and a thickener.

This invention relates to a production method for non-detonation synthesis nanodiamond by exposing carbonaceous feedstock to a dense plasma focus. The nucleated nanodiamond particles have characteristics that differentiate them from known forms of nanodiamond. For instance, the nucleated nanodiamond particles are substantially spherical and have a substantially smooth surface, as may be demonstrated by TEM. The nucleated nanodiamond particles are also free of graphite and detonation carbon contaminants. The identity of the nanodiamond particles has been confirmed through raman spectra, for example. The nanodiamond particles have also been found to be effective as a lubricant composition when combined with a carrier oil.

A dielectric nanolubricant composition is provided. The dielectric nanolubricant composition includes a nano-engineered lubricant additive dispersed in a base. The nano-engineered lubricant additive may include a plurality of solid lubricant nanostructures having an open-ended architecture and an organic, inorganic, and/or polymeric medium intercalated in the nanostructures and/or encapsulate nanostructures. The base may include a grease or oil such as silicone grease or oil, lithium complex grease, lithium grease, calcium sulfonate grease, silica thickened perfluoropolyether (PFPE) grease or PFPE oil, for example. This dielectric nanolubricant composition provides better corrosion and water resistance, high dielectric strength, longer material life, more inert chemistries, better surface protection and asperity penetration, no curing, no staining, and environmentally friendly, compared to current products in the market.
