Abstract

In recent years, reducing friction and wear-related adverse impacts on efficiency and durability in moving mechanical systems has gained increased attention. Herein, the search continues for novel materials and lubricants that can potentially reduce friction and wear. As one of the emerging self-lubricating materials, the tribological potential of graphene has been researched deeply. This article was dedicated to explore the combined lubrication of multilayer graphene (MLG) and WS2. The as-prepared sample of NiAl–1.5 wt% MLG–5 wt% WS2 (NB) exhibited excellent tribological properties. During the sliding process, a continuous lubricating film was formed to provide the low-strength junctions at the interface, reducing the friction coefficient and wear rate. Moreover, the MLG played the role of reinforcement particles and improved loading carrying ability.
