Controlling the friction and wear properties of mechanical contacts under high loads by liquid lubrication enables energy savings, provides better efficiency and increases component lifetime. Lubricant performance can be improved by use of additives, for example nanomaterials or protective coatings. Carbon has many allotropic forms which include diamond with sp3-structure, graphite with sp2-structure or amorphous carbons with mixed sp2/sp3 structures, among others. These allotropes have properties which are potential for lubrication purposes such as high hardness and strength, high thermal conductivity, low friction surfaces and chemical activity. In this work nanodiamonds (NDs), graphene oxide (GO) and silica/graphene oxide (SiO2/GO) comp...
