  1. 1. SUSTAINABLE LUBRICATION FOR FUTURE TRANSMISSIONS : Micropitting performance of Glycerol-based lubricants

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Zapata Tamayo Juan Guillermo; [2021]
    Keywords : micropitting; mild sliding wear; surface coating; diamond-like carbon DLC; glycerol-based lubrication; green lubricant; rolling contact fatigue; rolling-sliding;

    Abstract : Achieving sustainable lubrication by using environmentally friendly formulated lubricants has became an essential component of the transition process from fossil-powered vehicles to electrified transportation. Mixtures, or aqueous solutions of molecules such as polyhydroxy alcohols, and glycols usually known as green lubricants make it possible to achieve low friction coefficients under different lubrication conditions, which constitutes a potential alternative to improve the tribological performance of moving parts in automotive systems, at the same time that the environmental requirements are satisfied.

  3. 2. Study of Fluorescence Dye for Tracing Lubrication Oil inside Marine Engines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Author : David Sanned; [2017]
    Keywords : Laser Induced Fluorecence; Lubrition Oil; Marine Engines; Flourescence Dye; Technology and Engineering; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Engine lubrication is very important for engine sustainability and efficiency. It becomes even more important when heavier fuel types who contributes to lubrication are changed to alternative fuel without the same lubrication abilities. READ MORE

  4. 3. Graphene as an aqueous Lubricant

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Nishant Katyal; [2017]
    Keywords : Graphene; Lubrication; triborheometer; 4-ball tribometer; Mini Traction Machine; friction reduction; wear reduction; Grafen Smörjning; triborometer; 4-kuletribometer; mini-traktionsmaskin; friktionsminskning; nötningsreduktion;

    Abstract : The possible use of graphene and its derivatives dissolved in water as a green lubricant is an interesting avenue of research from tribological perspective. In this study, a highly concentrated stock solution of aqueous Graphene employing Polyethylene Glycol(PEG) as surfactant was diluted using proportionate volumes of De-Ionized (D.I. READ MORE
