Abstract

Carbon soot (CS) is a contaminant of engine oil, and the interaction between CS and oil additives should be understood. This work investigated the interaction between CS and nano-MoS2. Results show that adding 0.5% nano-MoS2 in polyalphaolefin significantly improved the lubricity. However, the lubricity of nano-MoS2 unexpectedly disappeared after adding 0.5% CS because CS prevented nano-MoS2 from forming a tribofilm. Interestingly, the lubricity was mostly recovered by ZDDP, which removed the inhibition of CS by helping form a MoS2-contained tribofilm. Another method was also found to remove the inhibition without the help of ZDDP, that is, replacing nano-MoS2 with nano-MoS2/nano-TiO2 heterostructures. Nano-TiO2 was immune to soot and could carry nano-MoS2 into the friction interface by their heterojunction to synergistically form a tribofilm.
