The morphologies and chemical species of the worn surfaces were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), respectively. The test results indicated that the three fatty acyl amino acids could effectively improve the anti-wear and friction-reducing abilities of the HVI 350 mineral oil. The improvement in anti-wear and friction-reducing abilities of the mineral oil by the related amino acids was mainly ascribed to the formation of a composite boundary lubrication film due to the adsorption of amino acids on the friction surfaces.展开更多

Microstructures and textures of original and β-cooled specimens were characterized by use of electron channeling contrast imaging, electron backscatter diffraction and X-ray diffraction techniques. Results reveal a novel phenomenon, i.e. the concurrent inheritance of microstructure and texture in the FC specimen cooled at a very slow rate. In contrast, for the AC specimen with faster cooling, typical lamellar α phases are obtained with relatively scattered texture.Based on comparatively crystallographic and thermodynamic analyses, reasons accounting for microstructure and texture differences in both cases are discussed, highlighting the significant role played by the variant selection behavior. It is postulated that increasing cooling rates should be more feasible to change the transformed texture in Zr materials.展开更多

Their tribological performances when added to water were evaluated on afour-ball tester and a ring-on-block machine. Results indicate that the hydrocarbon chain length ofthese compounds has significant influence on their tribological properties. When the number ofcarbon atom in alkyl group is equal to (or more than) 4, the compounds exhibit excellentload-carrying capacity, antiwear property and weld load. The antiwear action mechanisms of thepropionic acid compounds can be ascribed to the formation of adsorption film and chemical reac-tion film. The cooperation action of these films plays an important role in the prevention of tri-bological failure.展开更多
