NanoMaterials Ltd., the innovative nanotechnology lubricants company and a subsidiary of the leading American company: "Nanotech Industrial Solutions, Inc." (NIS), continues its cooperation with leading bearing manufacturers by utilizing its innovative nano-technology to improve the performance of various bearing applications.
A series of tests conducted by the mentioned European Bearings manufacturer "ZVL SLOVAKIA, a.s.", resulted in two detailed case studies showing major improvements in bearing durability, service life and dynamic load, when adding NanoMaterials' NanoLub® surface reconditioning additives to the standard lubricants, currently used in the tested bearings.
In the first study, conducted on an Open ZVL Bearing type 6305, NanoLub® Bearing Oil Additive was added to the OL-46 neat oil used in such applications, resulting in a nearly 100% increase in bearing durability and about 25% increase in bearing dynamic load.
In the second study, conducted on a Closed ZVL Bearing type 6202-2Z, NanoLub® EP Grease Additive was added to the RAS neat Grease, used in this type of bearing, resulting in a nearly 100% increase in bearing service life and about 30% increase in bearing's dynamic load.
Both case studies can be downloaded here or provided at request by NanoMaterials R&D department.
"We are always happy to test our products with manufactures, especially as reputed in their field of operations as "ZVL SLOVAKIA, a.s." is in bearings", said Daniel Sclar, NanoMaterials CEO. "These superb results, serve as another proof of the effectiveness of our additive product range, from both oil and grease lines, in bearing applications."
About NanoLub® Lubricant Additive Series:
The NanoLub® series has received the prestigious Nano 50TM Award by Nanotech Briefs (publishers of NASA Tech Briefs) and it is the first successful commercial implementation of inorganic, multi-layered fullerene-shaped nanoparticles in Extreme Pressure (EP) lubricants, based on patented and award-winning technology developed at Weizmann Institute of Science.
NanoLub® operates a dual-effect mechanism: multi-layer tungsten disulfide nanospheres reduce friction and heating, thereby reducing mechanical wear. Extreme pressure conditions causes nanospheres to create a tribofilm layer that attach to surface crevices and re-smoothens them, thereby extending mechanical efficiency and apparatus life.
Tests have shown that incorporating NanoMaterials' inorganic, lubricant additives into oil and grease formulations delivers a range of performance enhancements including:
* Significant friction reduction
* Reduced wear of contacting surfaces
* Reconditioning of existing wear damage
* Enhanced energy and fuel efficiency
* Reduced operating temperature
These translate to significant cost and performance benefits such as lower energy consumption, extended effective operation of mechanisms, extended lubricant life, extended machinery life, and reduced emissions.
