Solid/liquid interfaces are exploited in various industrial applications because confinement strongly modifies the physico-chemical properties of bulk fluids. In that context, investigating the dynamical properties of confined fluids is crucial to identify and better understand the key factors responsible for their behavior and to optimize their structural and dynamical properties. For that pur...

In this paper, we detail our results for the impact of MWCNT on the thermal and rheological properties of oil-based drilling muds. Our analysis considers the effects of time, temperature, and MWCNT volume fraction. The scanning electron microscopy imaging technique was used to monitor the MWCNTsdispersion quality. The experimental results unveil a considerable enhancement in the thermal conduct...

The object of study is natural oils. Lubricating additives based on substances – vegetable oils and animal fats meet the increased requirements for environmental safety materials used in drilling process. Consumption environmentally friendly lubricants constantly growing requires an expansion raw material base their production. Therefore today are important reagents. From ecological point view,...
