  • Publication number: 20160362626
    Abstract: A nano-fluid mixture of an ILSAC GF-5 resource-conserving motor oil (API SN) of 10W-30 viscosity mixed with a quantity of closed faceted non-shells carbon, formed by moving amorphous carbon through a plasma arc providing a heat greater than 5000° C., and a non-ionic surfactant having a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide chain and an aromatic hydrocarbon lipophilic group, then mixing this nano-dispersant mixture with an ester of glycerol providing at least one free hydroxyl group, provides a friction-reducing oil additive beyond the friction reduction experienced by any of these elements alone or in other combinations.
