Researchers from Chinese Academy of Sciences Report Details of New Studies and Findings in the Area of Tribology (Synergistic Effect and Long-term Lubricating Mechanism of Ws2/oil Combinations Determined Via Oil Molecule Structures In Vacuum)

2023 MAR 24 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Tech Daily News -- Investigators publish new report on Technology - Tribology. According

Article Description

WS 2 film with excellent lubricating property was combined with lubricating oils (PAO, PFPE and MACs) with different molecule structures to construct WS 2 /oil composite lubricating systems, respectively. The influences of the molecule structures and properties of oils on tribological properties of the systems were investigated systematically in vacuum. The result indicated that the WS 2 /PAO and WS 2 /MACs systems exhibited the obvious synergistic lubricating effect under relatively harsh testing condition, markedly prolonging the lubricating life and decreasing the wear rate. There is a new discovery that numerous ultrasmall WS 2 nanosheets were generated and uniformly adhered to friction contact area, further in-situ forming the tribolayer that significantly enhanced the lubricating life. The lubricating mechanism of the long lifetime for WS 2 /oil systems is finally revealed.
