| Summary: | Under triboelectric conditions, where
tribocharging accelerates lubrication failure,
lubricants with enhanced electrical properties
are essential. Trimethylolpropane Trioleate
(TMPO) oil, derived from esters that possess
good lubricating properties and wear
performance but is lacking in terms of electrical
properties which can be further improved when
blended with Ionic Liquid. This study blends 1 ā
5 wt% of Protic Ionic Liquid (PIL) into TMPO and
evaluate the frictional and wear performances
of the blends under 1 ā 2 A current conditions
to understand the behaviour towards the
tribological properties of different blends of
material. Electric currents ranging around 1 ā 2
A are implemented to the custom-designed
ball-on-disc tribometer, with a constant 4.5 V
voltage supply and the static resistance are
measured. Mechanical wear properties are
observed after the tribological test with
different samples. The frictional properties of
all concentrations of PIL in TMPO showed
significant frictional improvements with 1%wt
PIL showed 53% better results indicating
improvements in frictional properties and wear
performance under 2A current conditions,
owing to its lowest film resistivity of 0.14 mĪ©. |
