Tribochemical Transformation of Nano TiO 2 to Ilmenite on the Surface of Wearing Steel Parts: Antiwear Action of Nano TiO 2 as an Additive in Engine Oil

Listed in DataCite

TiO 2 nanoparticles of average size about 20–30 nm were hydrothermally synthesized from TiCl 4 under mild acidic conditions.

Description

The nanoparticles were mixed with dispersant and base oil to give a partially transparent concentrate with 1.5 wt% of Ti content. The concentrate was dispersed in hexane and base oil to characterize, respectively, by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS).

The concentrate was diluted with base oil to a parts per million level of Ti containing dispersion blends that were evaluated for wear and friction control performance. Nano TiO 2 containing fully formulated oil blend showed excellent load-bearing capability in Swingung, Reibung, Verschleiβ (SRV; oscillation, friction, wear) tests. Four-ball test results show that the wear scar diameter was considerably reduced to 0.30 mm for TiO 2 -added blend compared to neat base oil (0.60 mm).

The performance of TiO 2 -added blend was comparable to secondary zinc dialkyl dithiophospate (ZDDP)-added blend under identical condition. Raman spectra of the worn surface on the tested ball revealed the presence of ilmenite (FeTiO 3 ) and no deposits of pure TiO 2 .
