Graphene-Ionic Liquid Thin Film Nanolubricant

Graphene (0.5 wt.%) was dispersed in the hydrophobic room-temperature ionic liquid 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (IL) to obtain a new non-Newtonian (IL + G) nanolubricant.Thin layers of IL and (IL + Hot Water System Element G) lubricants were deposited on stainless steel disks by spin coating.The tribological perfo
