On the Crystallinity and Durability of ZDDP Tribofilm [PDF]
Abstract The current trend for using lower-viscosity lubricants with the aim of improving fuel economy of mechanical systems means that machine components are required to operate for longer periods in thin oil film, mixed lubrication conditions, where the risk of surface damage is increased. Consequently, the performance and durability of

Synthesis of ultrathin two-dimensional metal-organic framework nanosheets for lubricant additives
Two-dimension (2D) nano materials are diffusely employed as lubricant additives. In this paper, three kinds of ultrathin 2D metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets with different metal ions (Ni2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+) were successfully synthesized by ...

Scuffing failure analysis based on a multiphysics coupling model and experimental verification
General reductions in lubricant viscosities and increasing loads in machine components highlight the role of tribofilms in providing surface protection against scuffing. However, the relationship between the scuffing process and the growth and removal of

Tribofilms Forming in Oil-Lubricated Contacts [PDF]
The subject of the present paper is the characterization of third bodies of run-in systems. By means of continuous friction and wear measurement, lubricated steel-steel and steel-aluminum contacts were evaluated. Microstructure, chemical composition and response of the materials to shear were analyzed by XPS/AES and focused ion beam technique.

Lubricated contact processes are studied using classical molecular dynamics simulations for determining the entire range of the Stribeck curve. Therefore, the lateral movement of two solid bodies at different gap height are studied. In each simulation, a

Self-healing WS2 tribofilms: An in-situ appraisal of mechanisms [PDF]
Self-healing tribocoatings are being developed for aerospace applications to improve the lifetime and reduce the surface maintenance of components in motion. Here the tribo-induced self-healing behaviour of a WS2/a-C tribocoating has been evaluated for the first time by in-situ scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the mechanisms of damage and
