A Method of Making Carbon Coated Oxides as High-Performance Anode Materials
Professor Yunfeng Lu and colleagues have devised a tribo-system to reduce friction between two surfaces. The system includes a surfactant layer, a lubricant and nanoparticles dispersed in the lubricant. Nanoparticle-based lubricants require high durability to ensure their effectiveness in lubrication. This technology results in durable nanoparticles with a predetermined size, shape and shell to preferentially interact with surfaces instead of with each other. The technology has potential applications in several industries, including automotive, aerospace, regenerative medicine, and military systems.
