Through a multi-university collaboration, researchers have discovered a new, solid lubricating mechanism that can reduce friction in machinery at extremely high temperatures, well beyond the breakdown ...

The oil selection becomes particularly important when you’re employing high-temperature cooking techniques like frying or searing. If you use unsuitable oils, they might degrade, produce smoke ...

To address these challenges, engineers use temperature-resistant materials and flexible designs that allow bearings to expand ...

Tribology, the study of friction, wear, and lubrication, plays a crucial role in metalworking processes, especially at high temperatures. The performance of lubricants in these conditions is vital ...

Finding lubricants that work at exceptionally high temperatures challenges researchers and industries alike. Recently, a Virginia Tech team may have uncovered a promising candidate by happenstance: ...

Medically reviewed by Allison Herries, RDN You are not alone if you are confused about the differences between canola and ...

At lower viscosity, synthetic oil holds up better in high temperatures. If you’re the diligent type who checks your engine oil level at least once a month (as CR recommends), there’s a chance ...
