Tribology Investigation of Automotive Air Condition (AAC) Compressor by using Al2O3/PAG Nanolubricant

Lubrication is a requisite for any mechanical equipment that moved to avoid wear of sliding parts and enhance the equipment operation consistency. The objective of this study was to seek a new improved automotive air conditioning (AAC) compressor lubricant to enhanced AAC performances. The type o...
