Solid Lubricants
Solid or dry lubricants are materials capable of drastically minimizing friction between metal surfaces without requiring a liquid carrier. They deliver unmatched boundary protection under high thermal and load extremes.
The Science of Minimal Friction
Featuring a lamellar crystal lattice structure with weak intermolecular layers, solid lubricants allow sliding contact with near-zero resistance. Beyond lamellar structures, non-lamellar compounds like Cerflon® (PTFE reinforced with boron nitride) provide extraordinary anti-wear performance.
Performance & Benefits
Decreased energy dissipation, improved fuel efficiency, lower running temperatures, and ultra-smooth mechanical operation.
Cushions extreme pressure spikes and minimizes run-in wear for enhanced component life.
Dampens micro-vibrations and surface fretting, ideal for demanding high-performance applications.
Acts as an infallible emergency failsafe against catastrophic engine seizure in case of oil pressure loss.
How Does It Work?
Microscopic solid lubricant particles embed into sub-micron surface imperfections of metal surfaces. Under heat and mechanical pressure, they form a resilient micro-ceramic protective shield preventing metal-to-metal contact even when fluid oil film breaks down.
Stability & Compatibility
We utilize proprietary dispersants ensuring particles remain stably suspended without agglomeration. Our formulations undergo exhaustive testing for compatibility with modern synthetic base oils.
XENUM Solid Technologies
Ceramic Composite (hBN)
Stable colloidal dispersion of hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) in ester synthetic base oil. Polar ester chemistry bonds to metal surfaces while ceramic platelets provide diamond-grade thermal resistance and low friction.
Cerflon®
Cerflon® is a ceramic-reinforced fluoropolymer (PTFE) created by introducing boron nitride into the PTFE matrix. This exponentially enhances mechanical toughness and anti-scuffing endurance.
Carbon-Graphite
Colloidal dispersion of 1-micron graphite particles. These hexagonal carbon crystals offer a cost-effective, time-tested alternative providing heavy-duty boundary protection.
