Nano-materials are ultra-fine materials with nano-sized particles, and their unique structure also makes nano-materials have different physical and chemical properties. Nano-materials can be added to a variety of lubricants, play a good anti-wear and anti-friction effect, and can be used in many fields, such as bearing lubrication, gear transmission, cutting processing. At present, the types of nano-lubricating additives include metal element nanoparticles, oxide and hydroxide nanoparticles, nano-carbide and its derivatives, nano-sulfide, nano-rare-earth compound, nano-boron series, polymer nano-beads, etc. This article reviews the research status of nano lubricating additives.
