Abstract
A nanolubricant composition is described where the lubricant composition includes a flowable oil or grease with nanoparticles dispersed in the flowable oil or grease. The nanoparticles are configured to polish a surface of a structure slowly over a period of time. The nanoparticles a hardness of at least about 7 Mohs and a diameter that is less than one half the arithmetic average roughness of the surface or a length that is less than one half of the arithmetic average roughness of the surface.
