Next generation lubrication technology

Boron lubrication technology was initially developed at the Argonne National Laboratory for the US Dept. of Energy. Representing a ground-breaking advance in lubrication technology, boron was demonstrated to greatly enhance lubrication protection through the formation of a nearly frictionless solid boundary layer.

Since 1990, when Dr. Ali Erdemir discovered that boron was the most effective extreme pressure agent and created solids with the lowest measured friction coefficients, tribologists have recognized the tremendous advancement boron lubricants represented. This new development brought new possibilities for dry-film lubrication, extreme pressure and temperature lubrication, corrosion protection and wash-out resistant lubrication.
