The results revealed that compared with GR, covalent bond mixed hybridization reduced the mechanical strength of GF, but the robust spherical structure enhanced its bending stiffness.

GF inhibited this characteristic and thus induced liquid-liquid interlayer slip with high frictional resistance.

In this study, citric acid-modified graphene (CAG) was prepared by modifying 3D porous graphene with citric acid, achieving stable dispersion in lubricating oil for up to six months without the need for dispersants. The lubricating properties were investigated using a four-ball friction tester, and wear scars were characterized using the depth-of-field microscope, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Raman spectroscopy. The experimental results demonstrated that adding a composite (CC) of CAG and carbon black to castor oil reduced the coefficient of friction (COF) and anti-wear by 24.57 % and 70.27 %, respectively, under a load of 392 N. Under a load of 588 N, the COF and anti-wear decreased by 32.59 % and 56.54 %, respectively, while the last non-seizure load (P<sub>B</sub>) increased by 125.26 %. The sheet-like CAG adsorbed onto the friction surface, enhancing the oil film's load-carrying capacity, while the spherical carbon black acted as microbearings, converting part of the sliding friction into rolling lubrication. A synergistic effect between CAG and carbon black was observed, with the composite exhibiting better lubricating performance than either material alone. Moreover, molecular dynamics simulation results revealed that adding CAG alone enhanced the lubricant's adsorption but reduced its mobility. The combined addition of CAG and carbon black retained the improved adsorption while enhancing the lubricant's mobility, further confirming the synergistic action between CAG and carbon black.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23238,"journal":{"name":"Tribology International","volume":"208 ","pages":"Article 110648"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143687291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A material removal distribution (MRD) model of different magnetic materials was developed to guide the experiments. Key findings include significant reductions in surface roughness, effective removal of oxide layers formed during EDM, and improved polishing uniformity and efficiency.

The microscopic and elemental analyses are conducted on the wear scars, wear debris, and counter-body worn-out surfaces to study the wear mechanism comprehensively.

Facing two main obstacles at present, i.e., higher viscosity of lubricating oil and special tribopairs, a novel solid-liquid combined system is built in this work, which is mainly based on excellent tribological property of oil-soluble dialkyl-dithiophosphoric-modified Cu nanoparticles (DDP-Cu NPs) and superior self-lubricating capability of polymeric tribopairs. In this system, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is coupled with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to form a similar/dissimilar tribopair; and neat PAO40 (a real serving lubricating oil with high viscosity in poly-alpha olefin oil family), or PAO40 containing oil-soluble DDP-Cu NPs (PAO40 + Cu), is used as a lubricant during the sliding test. The results show that only dissimilar tribopair, i.e., PEEK-PTFE, can achieve oil-based superlubricity under the selected sliding conditions, which can be attributed to the synergistic effect between PEEK-PTFE tribopair and PAO40/PAO40 + 0.25 Cu. Furthermore, due to lower cohesive energy density (CED), PTFE is more likely to be transferred onto PEEK together with some tribochemical reactions, finally generating a high-performance tribofilm rich in carboxylated PTFE. In addition, it is concluded that, when lubricated with PAO40, the above synergistic effect is a key to achieve superlubricity; and for PAO40 + 0.25 Cu, the carboxylated PTFE and the exposed Cu core will create chelate effect, which can not only further enhance this synergistic effect, but also improve the wear-resistance of the system reaching near-zero wear.
