1. A method of making a lubricant composition, comprising:
combining a lubricating fluid, an added amount of water, and carbon nanoparticles, wherein the carbon nanoparticles include nanodiamonds; andmixing the combination of lubricating fluid, water, and carbon nanoparticles to produce a mixture of lubricating fluid, water, and carbon nanoparticles, wherein the lubricating fluid comprises a blend of API Group III and API Group IV base stocks, the blend comprises 82.1% by weight of the lubricating fluid, the lubricating fluid has a kinematic viscosity of 10.8 cSt at 100° C. and a kinematic viscosity of 62 cSt at 40° C., the amount of water in the mixture ranges from about 550 ppm to about 1667 ppm by weight of the mixture, the carbon nanoparticles comprise about 90 percent nanodiamonds by weight of the carbon nanoparticles, and the amount of carbon nanoparticles in the mixture ranges from about 18 ppm to about 104.9 ppm by weight of the mixture. |
