Russian technology will help save up to 20% of motor fuel

South Korean automaker Hyundai has begun testing a trial batch of piston rings covered with heavy-duty foil, developed by Russian scientists.

In the laboratories of far Eastern Federal University (FEFU) was obtained nanometry material which when applied to metal parts reduces friction and wear. The use of such technology in the manufacturing process of the automobile engine will not only increase its life but also to achieve significant fuel economy.





In the Republic of Korea at the automobile plant of Hyundai testing a trial batch of piston rings with heavy-duty foil from the University. South Korean manufacturers plan to use this coating in new generation vehicles. Now 20% of fuel is consumed for friction — if we reduce it, we can significantly reduce consumption and the amount of emissions, — said one of the developers is a leading researcher of the laboratory of film technology, the School of natural Sciences FEFU Alexander Samardak.The new material created on the basis of diamond and graphite fractions of carbon with the addition of metals and silicon. Laboratory film technologies, far Eastern University for several years engaged in the development of technology for the thinnest film coating parts of different units.





Nou-Hau the Russian scientists may find application not only in the automotive industry. Tools with such coatings are being tested in Arsenyev aviation company "Progress" of the holding "Helicopters of Russia". The results of the first tests showed that the coated nanofilm tools more durable. published

 

P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
