| 20080234149 | Nanoparticulate based lubricants - A method of making a nanoparticulate based lubricant is disclosed. The method includes providing solid lubricant material with particles having a size less than or equal to about 500 nanometers, and treating the particles to create composite nanoparticles. The composite nanoparticles includes the solid lubricant material and at least a second material. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080269086 | Functionalized nanosphere lubricants - A method of making a lubricant is disclosed. The method includes providing a hard nanosphere having a size of less than about 500 nanometers. The method also includes exposing the nanosphere to a radiation energy to at least partially bond a functional agent to a surface of the nanosphere. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20100018850 | System for removing particulate matter from exhaust streams - An aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a system for removing particulate matter from an exhaust stream. The system may include an ionization device configured to ionize particles of an exhaust stream. The system may further include an electromagnetic field generating device configured to deflect the ionized particles onto an inner-surface of an exhaust passageway, the inner-surface of the exhaust passageway being coated with a substance for lowering activation energy for a reaction of the ionized particles. The system may further include a regeneration means configured to remove particles from the exhaust passageway. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100040864 | Self-lubricating coatings - A self-lubricating coating is disclosed. The coating includes a base material. The coating also includes a nanoparticle of a first material and a shell substantially surrounding the nanoparticle and including a second material different than the first material. | 02-18-2010 |
