Features and Benefits of Lubricants with Graphene
Graphene forms a protective layer, reducing friction and wear. Tests show that HydroGraph’s graphene reduces the coefficient of friction by 70%.
Graphene increases the strength of materials by 30%, which lets graphene lubricants withstand higher pressures and loads.
By reducing friction and mechanical wear, parts will last longer, lowering maintenance and replacement costs. HydroGraph’s graphene showed over 24X more cycles over base oils in tests.
Graphene’s hydrophobicity (ability to repel water) provides a protective barrier against moisture, gases and other corrosive agents, preventing lubricant breakdown.
Graphene’s thermal conductivity efficiently dissipates heat, preventing lubricant breakdown and the need for frequent replacement.
By reducing wear, graphene lubricants contribute to energy savings and efficiency, a desirable feature especially for automotive and industrial applications.
Graphene lubricants let machines, equipment, motors and engines operate longer between maintenance shutdowns, increasing output and reducing maintenance.
Longer-lasting lubricants lets us replace the toxic and environmentally damaging additives currently used in industry.
