A commercial emulsion and a prepared by our lab emulsion without nano particles were chosen as controls to test the tribological and antibacterial properties of this new emulsion. The load carrying capacity, friction coefficient and average diameter of wear scars were tested by a four-ball machine and the comprehensive antifriction parameter ω was calculated. The wetting angle was also tested using a JC200C1 wetting angle tester. The micro surface and roughness of rolled strips were analyzed to investigate the tribological performance of the recommended new emulsion in strip production. It is shown that the new nano-emulsion possesses a higher load carrying capacity and wetting ability. Therefore the abrasive/plowing wear is reduced more efficiently with the addition of nano particles, and the micro surface is improved. The density of bacteria in the emulsions was tested after the cold rolling experiment. The emulsion breaking ratio and bacteria density were also tested in different time intervals after the cold rolling experiment. The final p H values and bacteria density of different layers of emulsions were measured and the sediment was analyzed by TEM to evaluate the antibacterial behavior of this new emulsion. It is shown that the density of microbial colonies which led to a corruption of emulsions was decreased about 90% and the effective antibacterial period was prolonged.展开更多

Nano-Si3N4 suspension w as of the greatest stability when the nano-Si3N4 powder was modified with prope r amount of KH-560, which was 1%(wt) of the amount of nano-Si3N4 powder. Elem ents of C, O and Si were detected on the surface of the modified nano-Si3N4 pow der by means of XPS. The TEM of the suspension showed that the average particle size of nano-Si3N4 became smaller and dispersibility of nano-Si3N4 was improve d in the medium of acetone when the nano-Si3N4 powder was modified with proper amount of KH-560. The results obtained showed that KH-560 had been bound on th e surface of nano-Si3N4 particles.展开更多
