Differential hydration lubrication performance of polyelectrolyte-modified UHMWPE promoted by diverse charge characteristics

open access: yesFriction
Hydrated ions can achieve exceptional hydration lubrication through their adsorption onto oppositely charged surfaces. Similarly, the charge characteristics of polyelectrolytes are expected to significantly impact the hydration lubrication performance of

Sliding Over Graphene Grain Boundaries: A Step Towards Macroscale Superlubricity

open access: yes, 2020
In light of the race towards macroscale superlubricity of graphitic contacts, the effect of grain boundaries on their frictional properties becomes of central importance. Here, we elucidate the unique frictional mechanisms characterizing topological defects along typical grain boundaries that can vary from being nearly flat to highly corrugated ...

Combination of diketone and PAO to achieve macroscale oil-based superlubricity at relative high contact pressures

open access: yesFriction
1-(4-ethylphenyl)-nonane-1,3-dione (0206) is an oil-soluble liquid molecule with rod-like structure. In this study, the chelate (0206-Fe) with octahedral structure was prepared by the reaction of ferric chloride and 1,3-diketone. The experimental results

Emerging superlubricity: A review of the state of the art and perspectives on future research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We present a review of superlubricity: the state of ultra-low friction between surfaces in relative motion. Various approaches to achieving this state are considered in a broad sense, including structural superlubricity, superlubricity via normal force ...

Macroscale Superlubricity of Hydrated Anions in the Boundary Lubrication Regime

open access: yes
Cations can achieve excellent hydration lubrication at smooth interfaces under both microscale and macroscale conditions due to the boundary layer composed of hydration shells surrounding charges, but what about anions?

Origins of Superlubricity Promoted by Hydrated Multivalent Ions

open access: yes, 2019
Strong hydration repulsion exists between two negatively charged surfaces in the alkali metal salt solutions, together with the fluid response to the shear of hydration layers, leading to superlubricity.

Macroscale Superlubricity Induced by MXene/MoS2 Nanocomposites on Rough Steel Surfaces under High Contact Stresses

open access: yes
Toward the goal of achieving superlubricity, or near-zero friction, in industrially relevant material systems, solution-processed multilayer Ti3C2Tx-MoS2 blends are spray-coated onto rough 52100-grade steel surfaces as a solid lubricant. The tribological

Superlubricity of Black Phosphorus as Lubricant Additive

open access: yes, 2018
Superlubricity is defined as a sliding regime in which friction, or the resistance to sliding of two relatively moving surfaces, almost vanishes. From a practical point of view, the development and use of new materials that can enable superlubricity ...

Phase transition structural superlubricity

open access: yes
Structural superlubricity refers to a state with almost vanishing friction and wear between crystalline surfaces in incommensurate configurations. However, thus far, this phenomenon has been observed only at solid-solid interfaces.
