The synergistic effect of nanoparticles can effectively improve the tribological performances of base oils. In this study, a novel lubricant additive by embedding 2D FeOCl on 2D Zn − MOF was reported for the first time in order to boost the tribological performances of polyethylene glycol (PEG200). The FeOCl/Zn − MOF prepared by a facile microwave assisted strategy was found to be a typical flower-like appearance, where FeOCl nanosheets decorated on the surface of Zn − MOF sheets. Owing to the electron transfer and synergistic effect between FeOCl and Zn − MOF, the novel FeOCl/Zn − MOF effectively reduced the coefficient of friction by 48 % and wear scar diameter by 88 % at the loading of 0.4 wt% FeOCl/Zn − MOF in the base oil. The work suggests the face-to-face combination of FeOCl and Zn − MOF for enhanced tribological performances, representing a new strategy to prepare efficient lubricant additives using assembled 2D nanomaterials.

PurposeThis study aims to reveal the tribological mechanism of synergistic effect between MoDTC and P-containing additives in aluminum-based grease.Design/methodology/approachThe authors prepared a molybdenum dialkyl dithiocarbamate (MoDTC) and revealed the tribological mechanism of synergistic effect between MoDTC and P-containing additives in aluminum-based grease by combining with ZDDP and P-containing and S-free additives.FindingsThe MoDTC the authors prepared has good friction-reducing and anti-wear properties in aluminum-based grease and has an obvious synergistic effect with ZDDP. MoDTC and ZDDP have a significant synergistic effect on the tribological properties in aluminum-based grease, mainly because of the formation of phosphates and metaphosphates as well as more MoS2in the friction film. P element plays a facilitating role in the chemical conversion of MoDTC to MoS2.Originality/valueThe experiments of MoDTC with tributyl phosphate and trimethylphenyl phosphate confirm that the P element plays a facilitating role in the chemical conversion of MoDTC into MoS2.Peer reviewThe peer review history for this article is available at: https://publons.com/publon/10.1108/ILT-12-2023-0410

Multiple advantages of Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene are of significance to enhance the mechanical properties of organic coating . Herein, few-layer amino-functionalized Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets (k-Ti 3 C 2 ) were introduced into interpenetrating polymers network (IPN) for constructing k-Ti 3 C 2 /IPN composite coatings , and their tribological properties were investigated in depth. The composite coating with 0.75 wt% k-Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets displays excellent tribological behaviors under extremely operating conditions, like the lowest COF (0.18) and the highest OCP value (−0.28 V) under tribocorrosion condition. Such excellent tribological properties mainly depend on good dispersion and interfacial compatibility of k-Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets in IPN matrix, as well as amino functionalized Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets as barrier to external damage. This work highlights a pathway to solve the wear/corrosion problem of organic coatings under extreme conditions.

To adapt to the complex application of polyurethane bearings, it is feasible to improve the tribological performance of single polyurethane-based friction materials through the synergistic effect produced by multi-component-lubricating fillers. In this context, rather than using tungsten disulfide (WS2), which has demonstrated excellent self-lubricating performance as a lubricating oil additive, this paper proposes that WS2and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) can be designed for addition into a polyether 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) polyurethane matrix as self-lubricating fillers so as to explore the synergistic effect of micro- and nano-lubricating fillers on the tribological performance of polyurethane matrix materials. Through a series of characterizations and tests, it was found that the dispersion of two-component-lubricating additives in a polyurethane matrix is improved when the ratio of WS2to SWNTs is roughly 2:1. In this case, the tribological performance of polyurethane matrix composites is more satisfactory than at other ratios. In addition, compared with the blank sample, the tribological performance of the synergistically modified polyurethane composites under dry friction is more significantly improved with the increase in contact load, while there is no significant improvement under water lubrication. Aside from contributing to the idea of exploring the synergistic effect of WS2and other micro or nanofillers, this method also opens up the possibility of practically applying WS2in the field of friction.Keywords:polyurethane elastomer;WS2;SWNTs;synergistic effect;tribological performance

Polyimide-bearing retainer has been successfully used in space environment. However, the structural damage of polyimide induced by space irradiation limits its wide use. In order to further improve the atomic oxygen resistance of polyimide and comprehensively investigate the tribological mechanism of polyimide composites exposed in simulate space environment, 3-amino-polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (NH2-POSS) was incorporated into a polyimide molecular chain and silica (SiO2) nanoparticles were in situ added into polyimide matrix and the combined effect of vacuum environment, and atomic oxygen (AO) on the tribological performance of polyimide was studied using bearing steel as the counterpart by a ball on disk tribometer. XPS analysis demonstrated the formation of protective layer induced by AO. The wear resistance of polyimide after modification was enhanced under AO attack. FIB-TEM confirmed that the inert protective layer of Si was formed on the counterpart during the sliding process. Mechanisms behind this are discussed based on the systematic characterization of worn surfaces of the samples and the tribofilms formed on the counterbody.Keywords:polyimide;NH2-POSS;tribological properties;atomic oxygen;tribofilm

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to prepare ZnFe2O4nanospheres, sheet MoS2and three ZnFe2O4@MoS2core-shell composites with various shell thicknesses, and add them to the base oil for friction and wear tests to simulate the wear conditions of hybrid bearings.Design/methodology/approachThrough the characterization and analysis of the morphology of wear scars and the elemental composition of friction films, the tribological behavior and wear mechanism of sample materials as lubricant additives were investigated and the effects of shell thickness and sample concentration on the tribological properties of core–shell composite lubricant additives were discussed.FindingsThe findings demonstrate that each of the five sample materials can, to varying degrees, enhance the lubricating qualities of the base oil and that the core–shell nanocomposite sample lubricant additive has superior lubricating properties to those of ZnFe2O4and MoS2alone, among them ZnFe2O4@MoS2-2 core–shell composites with moderate shell thickness performed most ideally. In addition, the optimal concentration of the ZnFe2O4@MoS2lubricant additive was 0.5 Wt.%, and a concentration that was too high led to particle deposition and affected the friction effect.Originality/valueIn this work, ZnFe2O4@MoS2core–shell composites were synthesized for the first time using ZnFe2O4as the carrier and the lubrication mechanism of core–shell composites and single materials were compared and studied, which illustrated the advantages of core–shell composite lubricant additives. At the same time, the influence of different shell thicknesses on the lubricant additives of core–shell composites was studied.Peer reviewThe peer review history for this article is available at:https://publons.com/publon/10.1108/ILT-12-2022-0367/

To improve electrical conductivity of the carbon-based pantograph strip, a sliding contact material of pyrolytic carbon (PyC) coated-copper foam/carbon composite was fabricated by chemical vapor deposition technology, followed by densifying processes of furan resin impregnation and carbonization. Morphology, electrical conductivity, wear and friction behavior of the composites are investigated to clarify the effect of PyC thickness (from 0 μm to 280 μm) on tribological behaviors and current transfer characteristic. The results show that there is a good interface combination between copper foam and resin carbon matrix in the composites after the improvement of interface wettability by inserting PyC layer. The composite has great advantages in electrical conductivity and density due to the copper foam and PyC layer with three-dimensional structure. With increasing the PyC thickness, both electrical conductivity and wear resistance of the composite have steadily increasing tendency, but friction coefficient has no obvious change. In addition, an analytical model is developed to explore current transfer mechanisms of the PyC-copper foam/carbon composite, and the theoretical predictions are in agreement with the experimental observations, in term of electrical conductivity and porosity of composite preform.

Pulsed magnetic field treatment was applied to the cemented carbide (WC-12Co) for enhancing its friction-reducing and anti-wear effect under different friction conditions , including dry, distilled water and nano-Fe 3 O 4 particles additive friction. The results show that the friction reduction and anti-wear effect could be enhanced with pulsed magnetic field applied . Especially, with nano-Fe 3 O 4 magnetofluid lubrication , the wear volume of workpiece is reduced by 26.8% and the average friction coefficient is reduced by 12.4%. The effect of the pulsed magnetic field on tribological properties is closely related to the oxidation and remanence. It can promote oxidation and forms a protective layer on the friction pair . Furthermore, it can make magnetofluid gather and amplify the lubrication.

Boron nitride (BN) shows obvious anti-wear performance as additives in lubricants, ceramics and polymers, however, the strong interlayer interactions lead to the weak anti-friction effect compared to those of carbon-based materials. In this work, we obtained the hydroxylated BN (BNO) via annealing the bulk material in air at high temperature. Utilizing the self-polymerization reactions of dopamine (DA) on the hydroxyls of BNO, the polydopamine (PDA) modified BNO (BNO-PDA) was formed, which has a good dispersity in water. The tribological tests indicate that both the hydroxylation and PDA modification can effectively lower the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear rate of the BN as additives in water, but the letter seems to present lower COF values when the testing time is increased. We also studied the influence of polymerization time on the tribological behaviors of BNO-PDA, and it was concluded that the 6 h modification gained the lowest wear rate and the 24 h modification yielded the lowest average COF value. It is believed that the favorable tribological performance of BNO-PDA as additives in water lubrication is resulted from the improved dispersity and the formation of organic layers on the surface of BN.

Nanomaterials exhibit intriguing tribological performance and have received particular attention in the lubrication field. However, little research has been found that surveyed the application of nanometer Ni in lithium grease. In this study, nanometer Ni with an average size of 100 nm was synthesized by the direct reduction method and dispersed in lithium grease. The feasibility of nanometer Ni as a grease additive in different lubrication scenarios was evaluated by a four-ball friction tester and a TE77 reciprocating friction tester. The lubrication mechanism was analyzed based on the evaluated physical properties of lithium grease and the characterization of the wear surface. The tribology test results showed the tribological properties of lithium grease were enhanced after introducing nanometer Ni. When the dosage was 0.2 wt%, the friction-reducing and anti-wear properties of point-to-point contact increased by 34.8% and 35.2%, respectively, while those of the point-to-flat contact increased by 28.8% and 38.7%, respectively. Our work not only provides theoretical guidance and practical reference for the utilization of nanometer Ni in grease, but also explains several possible lubrication mechanisms of nanomaterials in grease.Keywords:nano-lubrication;lithium grease;additives;nanometer Ni;tribological performance

To investigate the synergetic effects of laser texturing and super-hydrophobic coatings on tribological performances , we prepare micro-grooves on steel substrates by femtosecond laser and then deposit super-hydrophobic coatings in the micro-grooves to obtain coated groove-textured surfaces (CGSs). The tribological behaviors of polished steel surfaces (PSSs), groove-textured surfaces (GSs), and CGSs under water lubrication are examined. Compared with PSSs and GSs, CGSs show significant anti-friction and wear-resisting properties under a relatively low load. With increasing the texture density, the wear resistance of CGSs decreases. When a load of 0.5 N is applied on the CGSs with a texture density of 10%, the friction coefficient and wear loss are reduced by 22.3% and 73.5%, respectively, compared with PSSs.

Protic ionic liquids (PILs) have been emphasized in recent years owing to their convenient synthesis routines and outstanding lubricity properties. In this work, amidoxime-based PILs were investigated as additives in PAO10. The tribological tests demonstrated that these newly synthesized PILs could highly improve the friction-reducing, anti-wear, variable-frequency and load-carrying capacity properties of PAO10. The results of contact angle, ECR, SEM-EDS and XPS analysis revealed that the tribofilm consisted of a physical absorption layer containing organic carbonaceous species and a tribochemical film containing Fe 2 O 3 , which is responsible for the significant improvement of tribological performances of PAO10.
