Abstract
A comparison of the antiwear properties of water-organic solutions containing nano-sized particles of lead and palladium
Incoming article date: 25.05.2016A promising direction of creation of new lubricants is their modification by nanoclusters of metals, which form in the zone of friction of the protective film, providing reduction of wear of friction pairs. In this regard, the aim of this work is to study tribological properties of lubricating compositions containing nanosized particles of lead and palladium. A lubricating composition was obtained in aqueous solution during electrolysis with a lead anode or in the presence of salts of palladium in an ultrasonic field (complex processing). Tribological studies showed that the lubricating compositions have high anti-wear and extreme pressure properties.
