Discover the physical mechanisms behind grease thickening, the impact on lubrication systems, and practical engineering ...

Oil-soluble ionic liquids (ILs) have been proved as effective additives in lubricant oils through tribological experiments and post-test analytical analyses. In this study, surface structures of ...

Thus, we expect a perfluorinated liquid lubricant, such as Krytox GPL103 (PFPE), to preferentially wet a fluoropolymer Teflon surface compared to silicone oils (CH 3 terminal groups) and mineral oils ...
