Hexagonal boron nitride is usually used as a solid lubricant, but adding hexagonal boron nitride powder to lubricating oil can also significantly improve the lubrication performance. In recent years, some studies (Tribology Transactions 57.4(2014):740-748) have found that adding a certain proportion of ultra-fine and nanometer hexagonal boron nitride to the base oil can significantly reduce the friction coefficient and specific friction rate of the base oil (Figure 1).
This means that engine wear can be effectively reduced and its lifespan extended.
At the same time, the researchers also tested the impact of lubricating oil on engine fuel consumption after adding additives under different conditions: Compared with ordinary lubricating oil, the average fuel consumption of the engine after adding hexagonal boron nitride lubricating oil dropped by 2.7% (Figure 2).
