Edgar Raygoza<\/a> is leading the way in Mexico by creating lubricants for industrial machining<\/strong> generated from nanoadditives<\/strong> that are both eco-friendly<\/strong> and based on a technology that he began to develop during his doctoral studies at the Tec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Raygoza, who is also the founder of Global Nano Additives<\/a> (GNA), began his graduate studies, he was already focused on creating a nanofluid<\/strong> that would improve its thermal properties without altering its electrical insulating properties. However, halfway through his doctorate, he switched the focus of his research to the automotive sector<\/strong> and applied his technology to motors<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe began to test the first prototypes in very small workshops. Then, we moved up to bigger ones, until we got to the auto part suppliers. Finally, we reached the manufacturers themselves, such as John Deere,\u201d says the business owner, who was one of the winners<\/a> of the 2023 R\u00f3mulo Garza Award<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the nanoadditive<\/strong> technology developed by Raygoza<\/strong> is protected by patent applications<\/strong> in Mexico and the United States. What\u2019s more, according to an article published in 2019<\/a> on the DNF website, Global Nano Additives (based in Monterrey, Nuevo Le\u00f3n) has an office in China, where the company received funding from that country\u2019s government. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
