摘要
Carbon nanopearls have a unique layered structure made of nano-sized graphene fragments, which distinguishes them from closed-shell nano-carbons. This unique structure offers beneficial tribological properties which were evaluated in humid and dry environments. The lubricating effect was related to an easy shear of nano-sized graphene flakes from individual nanopearls.
