Self-healing lubricant additives

Self-healing lubricant additives
Scientists have developed lubricating oils with self-healing capabilities using special additives that automatically repair microscopic surface damage. When metal surfaces begin to wear, these additives react with the exposed metal to form a protective layer, essentially "healing" the damage in real-time. This technology extends engine life significantly by preventing wear before it becomes serious. The concept is inspired by how human skin repairs minor scratches automatically.
