Resin additive improves performance of high-temperature hydrocarbon lubricants [PDF]
Paraffinic resins, in high temperature applications, improve strength of thin lubricant film in Hertzian contacts even though they do not increase bulk oil viscosity.

The in-vacuo torque performance of dry-lubricated ball bearings at cryogenic temperatures [PDF]
The performance of dry-lubricated, angular contact ball bearings in vacuum at a temperature of 20 degrees K has been investigated, and is compared with the in-vacuo performance at room temperatures. Bearings were lubricated using dry-lubricant techniques

Comparison of release torques of tightened bolts in vacuum and air [PDF]
Various combinations of stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum bolt-nut couples are tightened to 60 lb-ft in partial vacuum and in air. Results are given for tests with and without two lubricants /a fluorosilicone and a sodium silicate bonded dry-film/

Bistable Wetting States on a Smooth Surface
Droplets on non‐textured surfaces typically exhibit a monostable wetting state. Here, we show that droplets can exhibit bistability even without surface texture. We investigate water droplets on a smooth substrate immersed in oil. We find that molecular modulation causes the droplet states to bifurcate into either a sticking or a repellent state ...

Influence of Carbon Nanoparticles on Electrically Induced Wear of Grease‐Lubricated Steels
When an electric current enters a pair of rubbing surfaces, enormous damage takes place. In this research, how such damage occurs in the presence of protective grease and the mitigation with added carbon nanoparticles, were investigated. It was discovered that those particles regulate transport and interfacial electrical stability of the grease ...
