Composite tribological materials based on molybdenum disulfide nanoparticles and polytetrafluoroethylene microgranules

Аннотация

Tribological materials based on molybdenum disulfide nanoparticles localized on the surface of ultradispersed polytetrafluoroethylene were prepared. The composition and properties of the new composite materials were studied. Introduction of ultradispersed additives based on polytetrafluoroethylene with MoS₂ and on polytetrafluoroethylene and nanodiamonds prepared by detonation synthesis (taken as reference samples) decreases the viscosity of MS-20 aviation oil. The dependence of the friction coefficient on the Sommerfeld number for the composites obtained was examined. Introduction of additives leads to a decrease in the friction coefficient with increasing linear sliding velocity, in contrast to the initial oil for which the trend is opposite. The dependence of the friction coefficient on the concentration of additives in the initial oil was demonstrated. Modification of polytetrafluoroethylene microgranules with 3 wt % MoS₂ nanoparticles allows the amount of additive to the oil to be considerably reduced.
