What can be the reason for high coefficient of friction and low wear scar in a lubricant containing carbon friction modifier and zinc oxide?

A lubricant contains zinc oxide nano particles and carbon FMs, the coefficiet of friction is high while the wear scar diameter is less for the samples. The load was 392N @1200rpm @75degree C.
