Abstract
An epoxy-based silane coupling agent (KH560) was grafted onto the surface of oleic acid-modified cerium oxide (CeO-OA) nanoparticles in order to improve the competitive adsorption ability of the anti-wear additives in ester oils and simultaneously hinder the additive desorption owing to thermal disturbance under high-temperature condition. The as-prepared oleic acid-epoxy silane co-modified cerium oxide (CeO-OA/E) nanoparticles were characterized. The effect of temperature on the adsorption behavior of trityl phosphate (TCP, a commercial high-temperature antifriction agent), CeO-OA and CeO-OA/E in PETO was studied using a dissipative quartz microbalance. Their tribological properties as the additives in pentaerythritol oleate (PETO), a polar ester base oil, were evaluated with a four-ball machine and a ball-on-block friction and wear tester; and their tribomechanism was explored with respect to their adsorption behavior on rubbed steel surfaces at elevated temperatures. It was found that the secondary surface-capping of CeO-OA by the KH560 silane coupling agent resulted in great increases in the surface potential (from 54 mV to 396 mV) and thermal stability as well (the thermal decomposition temperature rose from 185 °C to 254 °C). Among the tesetd lubricant additives, CeO-OA/E exhibited the highest adsorption mass, because of the highest surface potential the chemisorption ascribed to the epoxy group of the silane coupling agent. Particularly, CeO-OA/E added in PETO exhibited better friction reduction and anti-wear properties at 150 °C than CeO-OA and TCP, because CeO-OA/E added in PETO formed tribofilm composed of CeO and SiO with excellent thermal stability as well as friction-reduction and antiwear effects through stable chemical adsorption and tribochemical reaction at elevated temperatures.
期刊介绍：
Tribology is the science of rubbing surfaces and contributes to every facet of our everyday life, from live cell friction to engine lubrication and seismology. As such tribology is truly multidisciplinary and this extraordinary breadth of scientific interest is reflected in the scope of Tribology International.
Tribology International seeks to publish original research papers of the highest scientific quality to provide an archival resource for scientists from all backgrounds. Written contributions are invited reporting experimental and modelling studies both in established areas of tribology and emerging fields. Scientific topics include the physics or chemistry of tribo-surfaces, bio-tribology, surface engineering and materials, contact mechanics, nano-tribology, lubricants and hydrodynamic lubrication.
