Features
Lubricants are used in a wide variety of applications. A main requirement of lubricants is to reduce the mechanical friction between moving parts.
Boron nitride powders offered by JSC "UNICHIM & EP" are suitable for lubricant technologies and can be used as additives mixed to the base-oils to improve the performance of the final lubricant composition providing the following advantages:
- Reduced friction and wear
- Increased performance of the lubricant under load
- Improved dry running properties
