Hybrid nano-materials offer potential scope for an increasing numerous novel applications when engineered to deliver availably functional properties. In the present study, the SiO2/MoS2 hybrid nanoparticles with different mass ratios were employed as lubricant additives in the base oil, and their tribological properties were evaluated using a reciprocating ball-on-plate tribometer for magnesium...

In this experimental study, the rheological behavior of Al2O3-MWCNT (90%:10%)/10W40 hybrid nano-lubricant has been determined at the temperature range of 5°C to 55°C. Al2O3 nanoparticles (average size of 50 nm) and MWCNTs (inner and outer diameter of 2-6 nm and 5-20 nm, respectively) were dispersed in engine oil (10W40) to prepare 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2...

The tribological performances of the SiO₂/MoS₂ hybrids as lubricant additives were explored by a reciprocating ball-on-flat tribometer for AZ31 magnesium alloy/AISI 52100 bearing steel pairs. The results demonstrated that the introduction of SiO₂/MoS₂ hybrids into the base oil exhibited a significant reduction in the friction coefficient and wear volume as well as an increase in load bearing ca...

Lubricant additives, based on inorganic nanoparticles coated with organic outer layer, can reduce wear and increase load-carrying capacity of base oil remarkably, indicating the great potential of hybrid nanoparticles as anti-wear and extreme-pressure additives with excellent levels of performance. The organic part in the hybrid materials improves their flexibility and stability, while the inor...

abstract background and aim: one of the major problems with resin composite restorations is the weakness of bonding between the new and aged composites. since appropriate micromechanical retention is necessary for the repair of aged resin composite restorations, the level of surface roughness after sandblasting can be influential in this regard. considering the diverse composition of available ...

The implementation of nano-additives in machining fluid is significant for manufacturers to attain a sustainable manufacturing process. material removal rate (MRR) process transforming solid raw materials into specific shapes and sizes. This has many challenges due friction, vibration, chip discontinuity when aluminum alloy, which led poor accuracy affected the fatigue life developed material. ...

AbstractSputtered MoS2 coatings have been mostly used as a solid lubricant. In this investigation, MoSx/Ni composite coatings with Ni contents varying from 0 to 22 % were deposited onto steel substrate using a DC magnetron sputter process. The MoS2/Ni ratio in the coatings was controlled by sputtering the composite targets. The composition, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the...

The art of nano-additive manufacturing in developing advanced mechanical components via machining cannot be over-emphasized when parts for aerospace, automobile, and structural application through the end-milling aluminum alloys. However, process generates heat friction due to parameter that initiated contact between cutting tool workpiece. This excess leads high surface roughness (SR), low mat...
