An experimental study on characterization and properties of nano lubricant containing Cellulose Nanocrystal (CNC)

Nano-lubricant is a new kind of engineering lubricant composed of nanometer-sized particle dispersed in a base lubricant. Recently, nanoparticles have been explored as lubricant additives for improving the stability and lubricity properties of a technological fluid. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), a u...
