One of the challenge's facing Tribologists is developing a solid boundary lubrication technology that will effectively lower the present surface friction coefficient limitations and further reduce wear in fluid systems, reduce energy usage, eliminate corrosion, extend component life and gain the highest efficiency.
The choice for tribo-applications is utilising a solid boundary additive in the carrier oil acting as a barrier of molecules between moving parts. Since 1975 with the introduction of ZDDP and OVER based calcium sulfonate no new major advancements in boundary additives have occurred.
ZDDP, phosphorus, sulfur and OVER based calcium sulfonate are the common boundary additives found in all lubricating oils whether synthetic or petroleum including aftermarket oil additives. These additives are highly toxic, sacrificial (deplete), inert (do not bond to metal alloy), and become acidic and corrosive furthering the process of micro-pitting the host metal eventually leading to component inefficiency and failure.
With the reduction of ZDDP and phosphorus down to 1 % in the new API CJ-4 oils, little protection against wear is offered. The Boric Acid technology solves this problem with a permanent Boric Oxide surface offering the most advanced protection against wear and energy consumption.
Graphite and molybdenum used as an extreme pressure (EP) additive have little lubricating value; rather tend to accelerate the wear of the fluid system and are not reactive therefore under heavy pressure will press out exposing metal to metal contact.

A breakthrough discovery at the prestigious National Argonne Labs directed under Tribologist Ali Erdemir and his R&D team found that Hydrogen Orthobroate (Boric Acid) was the algorithm they were searching for as a superior solid boundary, anti-corrosive lubricant and EP agent, light years more advanced than any boundary lubricant ever developed. There is now available for industry a superior lubrication technology which may eventually antiquate all boundary lubricants and EP additives in humid fluid systems.

Boric acid is introduced to a metallic substrate in the presence of water vapor. Interaction between the substrate, the water (H2O), and Boric Acid (H3BO3) form a continuously self-replenishing film of boric oxide (B2O3) that bonds to the substrate, forming a corrosion-resistant barrier. The boric oxide spontaneously reacts with the air, replenishing the boric acid. The boric acid molecules form into crystal platelets, each of which is a triclinic lattice of molecules strongly bound together by macromolecular covalent bonds (see microscopic photo above). Aligned by the mechanical motion of the substrate, the platelets form stacked layers with very small (0.318 nm) spaces between. As a result, the inter-platelet layers are bound by weak "Van der Waals" forces, allowing a very low coefficient of friction.

The unique molecular structure makes the Boron-CLS-Bond™ unrivalled. The benefits of Boron-CLS-Bond™ products have been documented in test after test. For example, engine friction is reduced by up to 80%, and engine wear by up to 90%* and in private testing by industrial users,for both. For engine oils and industrial grease, the results have been even more impressive. Plus, boron is environmentally friendly in all forms. The bottom line is that lubricants with Boron-CLS-Bond™ can be used anywhere there's a need for guaranteed performance.

Boron-CLS-Bond™ is a nano lubricant additive, whose benefits arise from the active ingredients boron diamond powder (MCDP) and nano boron. Boron-CLS-Bond™ works by building up boron metal films in the motor which have a hardness of around 9 Mohs - almost as hard as diamond with a hardness of 10 Mohs. These boron metal films offer a long-lasting, heat-resistant protection against friction and wear in the engine, increasing the engine power by up to 9%. When Boron-CLS-Bond™ reduces friction and wear in the engine, the vehicle has smaller fuel consumption (up to 15% less), the motor life is prolonged and the motor produces less noise. Boron-CLS-Bond™ also saves the environment, since the vehicle emission of CO2 and other pollutants decrease similarly as the fuel consumption. Less friction also means lower temperatures in the engine, which lowers the burn-up and degradation of the motor oil. In fact, Boron-CLS-Bond™ increases the motor oil's life time by up to 100%.

The active ingredients boron diamond powder (MCDP) and nano boron of Boron-CLS-Bond™ are chemically inert. Since the MCDP and nano boron particles are extremely small (few nanometres), they do not clog the tiny oil ducts in the motor. The boron particles are not agglutinant and do not pollute the motor oil. Boron is a well-known high-tech lubricant, which is extremely stable even at the very large temperatures and pressures apparent in a running engine. Because of these exceptional properties of Boron-CLS-Bond™'s active ingredients, no adverse effects or motor damage occur when applying Boron-CLS-Bond™

Boron-CLS-Bond™ is the most efficient nano lubricant additive on the market. The active ingredient nano boron has the lowest friction coefficient among popular solid lubricant additives. Boron-CLS-Bond™'s working principle is physical and not chemical as is it with most other lubricant additives. This makes Boron-CLS-Bond™'s more effective and long-lasting than chemical additives. Boron-CLS-Bond™'s is not harmful to the engine such as most chemical additives, which are highly aggressive in particular at high temperatures.

No, the active ingredients boron diamond powder (MCDP) and nano boron of Boron-CLS-Bond™ are chemically inert and extremely stable in particular under the high temperatures and pressures apparent in a running engine. In contrast, the motor oil's lifetime is extended by up to 100%, since Boron-CLS-Bond™ drastically reduces friction and heat development in the engine. Thus, Boron-CLS-Bond™ does not degrade but supports the function of the motor oil, since oil burn-up and pollution is lowered when applying Boron- CLS-Bond™

The purpose of a motor oil is basically to build up a lubricating film between working metal surfaces in the motor. The main purpose of this lubrication film is to reduce friction. Without it, the working metal surfaces would grind so heavily on each other that extensive amounts of frictional heat are developed. The cause of this heat development is extreme abrasion and wear of the metal surfaces leading shortly to irreversible damage of the engine (piston jamming). The ability of the motor oil to build up the protective lubrication film is heavily dependant on the temperature of the motor oil. The "ideal" motor oil has a low viscosity and a good wetting behaviour for temperatures ranging from -30°C (engine start in the winter) to several hundreds of °C (250km/h on the high-way). It is chemically stable under high temperatures and pressures and does not burn-up while the engine runs.
Unfortunately, no real motor oil can satisfy all these requirements at the same time. That is, all of the available motor oil products on the market are tailored for specific motor uses. For example, a motor oil for use in the winter is particularly "thin" already at low temperatures.
When applying Boron-CLS-Bond™, the task of reducing friction in the running engine is taken care of by the nano-scale solid lubricant particles contained in Boron-CLS-Bond™ (boron diamond powder (MCDP) and nano boron). That is, even without lubrication film, little frictional heat is produced, since extremely hard and slick boron metal layers rub on each other. These layers are similar to the slick Teflon layer in pans and pots, except that the boron nano particles in Boron-CLS-Bond™ are radically more temperature and pressure resistant than a Teflon layer would ever be. Nonetheless, a lubrication film is still required to take away the residual frictional heat build up in the engine. The nano lubricant additive Boron-CLS-Bond™ therefore boosts the function of each motor oil. This enables the user of Boron-CLS-Bond™ to use cheaper motor oil with lesser lubrication capabilities than expensive high-performance oils. If a particular synthetic motor has other responsibilities beside lubrication film development and friction reduction, no functional degradation occurs when applying Boron-CLS-Bond™, since its active ingredients are chemically inert and extremely stable. Additionally, the volume of the mineral oil base contained in a bottle Boron-CLS-Bond™ S-250 (approximately 163cc) is small compared to that of the (high-performance) motor oil (several liters) such that no considerable functional modification after mixing occurs.

Applying Boron-CLS-Bond™ overdosed causes no physical damage to the engine. Instead, the engine is better protected against friction and wear, since the boron metal protection film in the engine develops faster and is more compact. Excess amounts of the active ingredients remain as emulsion in the motor oil. Evidently, he improvement compared to the suggested dosage of 250ml Boron-CLS-Bond™ per 5 litres of motor oil will be small. A further reduction of the fuel consumption of the vehicle and a further increase of the motor power can be expected, but at small levels. For best results at a low price, we recommend to use 250ml Boron-CLS-Bond™ per 5 liters of motor oil.

Boron-CLS-Bond™ contains the active ingredients boron diamond powder (MCDP) and nano boron. Under high pressure between two metal surfaces, the boron diamond crystals are pressed into the material to form a boron metal film. This film is diamond-hard and at the same time very slippery. The nano boron forms a low-friction solid lubricant film in between these films. Boron diamond crystals not integrated into the metal surface act as bearing balls, which further reduces friction and abrasion. This is because sliding friction is turned into the much smaller rolling friction. The boron diamond crystals are 5 nanometres in diameter, which is the 20.000th part of the diameter of a human hair!
