Tribologic behaviour and suspension stability of iron and copper nanoparticles in rapeseed and mineral oils

Abstract: Metal particles, suspended as wear debris or as additives, have a major influence on lubrication technology. They are known mostly for negative roles, but even iron nanoparticles, which are likely to pass through most filters, have not yet been quantitatively evaluated for their effects on friction and wear. In this study iron and copper nanoparticle suspensions were formulated in high sulphur paraffinic mineral oils and food grade rapeseed oil. The suspension stabilisation mechanism based on steric repulsion … Show more

“…Other suspension samples were stored undisturbed and their stability monitored. Some data on long‐term suspension stability of nanoCu and nanoFe blends along with the surfactant influence on sedimentation rates had been reported in detail elsewhere, showing that at least an hour was necessary to see any trace of separation even in the least stable suspensions, which was clearly too slow to have any effect on four‐ball tests. One blend with Fe micro‐particles (as opposed to nanoFe) of less than 20 µm in size was prepared for comparison as well.…”

“…For given four‐ball conditions several different values of elastic indentation can be extrapolated from reports of other researchers: 0.22 mm, 0.21 mm and 0.20 mm . If liquid adsorption is negligible, Hertz elastic indentation D HZ can be calculated to produce 0.272 mm . However, at 150‐N load the interfacial pressures are relatively low, and their lateral distribution might be significantly affected by the adsorption of an additive layer .…”
