Croda Int Plc is a developer and manufacturer of an innovative phyllosilicate-based surface treatment additive technology for gears and bearings. The particles with a platelet shape use lubricants as a carrier and build through their adsorption a protective phyllosilicate-based coating on the surface. The modified surface has a significantly lower surface roughness, which ensures a better load distribution and lower local pressure. Additionally, due to the special layered material structure, the particles can be sheared in the tribological contact, which leads to a significant reduction in friction. More detailed mechanism description can be found in our scientific publication, Tribological properties of a phyllosilicate based microparticle oil additive Wear 426-427 (2019) 835-844 [10]. All in all, when applying the products, treated systems can run better with reduced friction, wear, surface roughness and temperature. These effects lead to higher efficiency and longer lifetime.
