“…The base lubricants investigated included pure polyalphaolefin oil of viscosity grade 4 (known as PAO 4; 4?1 cSt at 100uC) mainly because of its higher operating temperature and good resistance to oxidation. [12][13][14] The same oil was blended with boric acid particles at different concentrations with and without the use of a surfactant and tested under the same tribological test conditions. The surfactant used for this study was sorbitan trioleate (STOMO), purchased from Lambent Technologies.…”

“…Lubricants are an essential tool to reduce machine degradation and improve efficiency by reducing the friction between surfaces. 1 Lubricants can be divided into biological and nonbiological, the first type is required where contamination must be kept as low as possible as in the food or drug industry. Nonbiological lubricants are divided into two main categories: mineral oils and synthetic oils and are the most widespread types of lubricants.…”

“…This makes it hard to develop new lubricants or to improve their performances. 1 Synthetic oils, on the other hand, are more expensive, and they were developed mainly to work in extreme conditions such as high temperatures or high pressures. 3 Lubricant development is an important field of research in tribology, but due to lubricant complexity, the process is mostly trial and error based and not much is known about the atomistic behavior.…”

“…Oils are present in many areas of daily life: they are used as an energy source, as reactants in chemical synthesis, and also as lubricants. [ 1,2 ] Natural oils are subject in their composition to seasonal and geographical variations. [ 3 ] Treatments like extraction also need consideration, making dedicated high‐performance analysis indispensable for their characterization.…”
