This project will investigate the use of ionic liquids as a new class of multi-functional (anti-wear and friction modifier) lubricant additives to allow the use of lower viscosity engine oils, to improve engine efficiency. Increased availability of low cost carbon fiber can enable vehicle weight reduction and improvement in fuel economy.
