Abstract
ABSTRACT Europium nitrate, ammonium tungstate and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide were used, and Eu-doped WO3 (WO3:Eu3+) nanopowder was synthesized by the micro-emulsion method. Tetraethyl silicate was hydrolysed into SiO2 and WO3:Eu3+ nanopowder coated with SiO2 (SiO2/WO3:Eu3+) was obtained. The microstructure and morphology of the prepared nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and HRTEM. Results showed that the prepared nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ powders composed of WO3 of monoclinic and SiO2 of amorphous, which was spherical and granular, and the grain size reaches 50 nm. The tribological behaviour of nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ as extreme pressure and anti-wear additive in the water-based fluid was studied by a four-ball machine. The results demonstrate that nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ exhibits superior load-bearing capacity, anti-wear and anti-friction performance in water-based fluid, especially when the optimal concentration of nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ is 0.4 wt-%. WSD, COF and wear volume of the nano-SiO2/WO3:Eu3+ decreased by 62.43%, 30.20% and 67.34%, respectively, compared with that of the water-based fluid.
期刊介绍:
Surface Engineering provides a forum for the publication of refereed material on both the theory and practice of this important enabling technology, embracing science, technology and engineering. Coverage includes design, surface modification technologies and process control, and the characterisation and properties of the final system or component, including quality control and non-destructive examination.
