The growing demand for sustainable lubricant solutions is driving the exploration of bio-based materials that deliver comparable performance to conventional, primarily fossil-based chemistries. This study focuses on squalane as a base oil, which can be derived from different renewable sources. A total two products were evaluated thermal-oxidative stability and benchmarked against polyalphaolefin, PAO 4, same carbon number. Oils artificially altered in closed reactor sampled subjected...
Conversion of forests to farmland permanently lowers atmospheric methane consumption due unresolved reasons. Alphaproteobacterial methanotrophs were predominant in forested soils and gammaproteobacterial species subtropical ferralsols Brazil. The capability was obliterated soils, suggesting a shift from oligotrophic copiotrophic species.
van der Waals (vdW) forces play a fundamental role in the structure and behavior of diverse systems. Because development functionals that include nonlocal correlation, it is possible to study effects vdW interactions systems industrial tribological interest. Here we simulated within framework density functional theory (DFT) adsorption isooctane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) ethanol on an Fe(100) surface, employing various exchange-correlation take into account. In particular, this paper discusses...
The increasing demand for sustainable tribology has accelerated the development of environmentally friendly lubrication solutions such as water or water-related lubricants. Earlier works have reported on water-lubricated sliding silicon nitride (Si3N4) at high speeds, which can result in a superlow friction (μ < 0.01) owing to formation hydrodynamic films hydrophilic surface layers. Here, combined boundary-lubrication experiments low speeds and atomistic simulations reveal an alternative...
Low vapor pressure and several other outstanding properties make room-temperature ionic liquids attractive candidates as lubricants for machine elements in space applications. Ensuring sufficient liquid lubricant supply under conditions is challenging, consequently, such tribological systems may operate boundary lubrication conditions. Under circumstances, effective requires the formation of adsorbed or chemically reacted films to prevent excessive friction wear. In this work, we evaluated...
Twelve dicationic ionic liquids have been investigated for their potential inlubricants. The dications selected were synthesized from oligoethylene glycols linking two cationic moieties based on either N-methylimidazolium or N-methylpyrrolidinium at the extremities. As anions, chloride, bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Tf 2 N), methanesulfonate and butansulfonate chosen. Thermal stability of IL has evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis differential scanning calorimetry showing good...
ABSTRACT A tribological investigation of two ionic liquids (ILs) that could be used as potential lubricants for vacuum or space applications is presented. Their behaviour was evaluated using a ball‐on‐flat oscillating reciprocating motion CaTri ultra‐high (UHV) tribometer and the results were compared against those conventional perfluoropolyether (PFPE) lubricant. The thermal stability investigated by thermogravimetric analysis before exposing them to UHV environment. worn steel surfaces...
