Structural lubricity under ambient conditions [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 Structural lubricity—referring to ultralow levels of friction between atomically flat, incommensurate surfaces—has previously been observed under ultrahigh vacuum.

Use of in vitro and haptic assessments in the characterisation of surface lubricity [PDF]
, 2018 Lubricity is a key property of hydrophilic-coated urinary catheter surfaces. In vitro tests are commonly employed for evaluation of surface properties in the development of novel catheter coating technologies, however, their value in predicting the more ...

Lubricity of paraffinic fuels additivated with conventional and non-conventional methyl esters
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2019 Fuel lubricity prevents wear between metallic parts in relative motion inside the injection system of combustion engines. Among diesel fuels, paraffinic (gas-to-liquid or hydrotreated oils) and biodiesel (methyl esters) fuels are emerging since some of ...

The lubricity of ethanol-gasoline fuel blends
Revista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2013 In this work the lubricity of several ethanol (hydrated or anhydrous) / gasoline fuel blends was measured by using a conventional HFRR tester. Tests were carried out at 25ºC with no water vapour pressure control, according to the ASTM D6079 standard ...

Experimental viscosity measurements of biodiesels at high pressure [PDF]
, 2016 The viscosity of biodiesels of soybean and rapeseed biodiesels blended with mineral diesel fuel were measured at pressures of up to 200 MPa. Using a falling sinker-type viscometer reproducible viscosity data were obtained based on the time taken for a ...

Influence of Solutes on Hydration and Lubricity of Dextran Brushes
CHIMIA, 2012 The characteristic lubricity and non-fouling behavior of polymer brushes is critically dependent on the solvation of the polymer chains, as well as the chain–chain interactions.

The Effect of Temperature and Asphaltene Content on the Lubricating Properties of Fuel Oils
Lubricants, 2023 During coal-based power generation, fuel oil is used to assist with ignition of pulverised coal. Fuel oil passes through several pieces of equipment on its way to the burner section of the boiler.
