Nanoparticle Aggregation in Lubricant Oils Halted by New Dispersant Study

A groundbreaking research study has made a significant breakthrough in understanding the mechanism of deposit control in lubricant oils. The study, conducted by researchers from Middle East Technical University, reveals that the use of polyisobutylene-bis-succinimide (PIBSI) dispersants can effectively mitigate sludge-type nanoparticle aggregation in lubricant oils. This research has crucial
