Phosphorus deposition on a three-way catalyst under accelerated ageing conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Degradation of catalyst performance with time is described as ageing. There are two significant ageing mechanisms: poisoning and sintering. Experimental data on ageing have been obtained on an engine test bed using a specially designed catalyst core ...

Additive Adsorption on DLC Coatings in Static and Tribological Conditions Using Neutron Reflectometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
Neutron reflectometry (NR) has proven to be an important analytical tool for investigations of the adsorption in boundary lubrication for both simple and complex additives by using either deuterated additives or the base carrier lubricant.

Experimental Evaluation of Solar-Powered Desalination Ponds in Waste Water Treatment [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The purpose of this research is to examine a desalination pond that is experimental in size and uses solar energy for its heating. The solar pond is the major components of a zero discharge desalinate progression (ZDDP), as shown below.

Towards Phosphorus Free Ionic Liquid Anti-Wear Lubricant Additives

open access: yesLubricants, 2016
The development of improved anti-wear additives would enable the use of lower viscosity oils that would lead to improved efficiency. Ionic liquids have the potential to be this type of new anti-wear additive.

The impact of organic friction modifiers on engine oil tribofilms

open access: yes, 2014
Organic friction modifiers (OFMs) are important additives in the lubrication of machines and especially of car engines where performance improvements are constantly sought-after. Together with zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDDPs) antiwear additives, OFMs

Material‐Dependent Antagonistic Effects between Soot and ZDDP

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, 2020
AbstractWhile soot in engine oil is known to accelerate the wear of diesel and gasoline direct‐injection compression‐ignition engines, there is a lack of consensus on the wear mechanism though various hypotheses have been proposed in the literature. Particularly, some recently observed antagonistic effects between soot and a common lubricant antiwear ...
