Book Chemistry and Technology of Lubricants

Download or read book Chemistry and Technology of Lubricants written by Roy M. Mortier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of lubricants began in ancient times and has developed into a major international business through the need to lubricate machines of increasing complexity. The impetus for lubricant development has arisen from need, so lubricating practice has preceded an understanding of the scientific principles. This is not surprising as the scientific basis of the technology is, by nature, highly complex and interdisciplinary. However, we believe that the understanding of lubricant phenomena will continue to be developed at a molecular level to meet future challenges. These challenges will include the control of emissions from internal combustion engines, the reduction of friction and wear in and continuing improvements to lubricant performance and machinery, life-time. More recently, there has been an increased understanding of the chemical aspects of lubrication, which has complemented the knowledge and understanding gained through studies dealing with physics and engineering. This book aims to bring together this chemical information and present it in a practical way. It is written by chemists who are authorities in the various specialisations within the lubricating industry, and is intended to be of interest to chemists who may already be working in the lubricating industry or in academia, and who are seeking a chemist's view of lubrication. It will also be of benefit to engineers and technologists familiar with the industry who require a more fundamental understanding of lubricants.

Book Nanolubricants

Download or read book Nanolubricants written by Mohd Yusuf and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-04-10 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NANOLUBRICANTS Through the dissemination of the latest advancements in nanolubrication science, this volume addresses the pressing concerns surrounding their economic feasibility, environmental acceptability, sustainability, and overall viability. Lubrication is the lifeblood of machinery and the key to its smooth operation. In the world of mechanics and engineering, the role of lubricants cannot be overstated. They are the unsung heroes that reduce friction between surfaces in contact, thus preventing excessive heat generation during motion. Beyond this primary function, lubricants find their application in diverse areas, including power transmission, foreign object transportation, and the regulation of surface temperature. In recent times, the world has shifted towards sustainable and environmentally-friendly practices, prompting a transition from conventional lubricants to more efficient and eco-conscious alternatives. Among these emerging solutions, nanolubricants have emerged as formidable contenders, reshaping the landscape of lubrication technology. Their adoption not only promises enhanced performance but also carries the added benefit of environmental responsibility through biodegradability. This book delves into the multifaceted realm of nanolubricants, exploring their characterization and application across various domains. From vegetable oil-based lubricants to those incorporating metal and non-metal oxide components, this comprehensive work encompasses nine meticulously curated chapters. A particular focus is placed on the intriguing synergy between nano-dimensionality and the incorporation of metals and metal oxides into vegetable oil-based biodegradable lubricants. The book explores the environmental advantages, progress, and challenges associated with this innovative approach. Furthermore, it delves into the integration of functionalized nanostructured semi-metal-based compounds as lubricant additives in non-edible vegetable oils, paving the way for improved tribological properties. Audience The book is extremely important to industrial practitioners working in mechanical engineering, tribology, wear, tear, friction and lubrication behavior of machinery. Researchers in nanoscience, nanotechnology, materials science, and sustainability subjects, will find this book useful.

Book Lubricants

Download or read book Lubricants written by Marika Torbacke and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Those working with tribology often have a background in mechanical engineering, while people working with lubricant development have a chemistry/chemical engineering background. This means they have a tradition of approaching problems in different ways. Today’s product development puts higher demands on timing and quality, requiring collaboration between people with different backgrounds. However, they can lack understanding of each other’s challenges as well as a common language, and so this book aims to bridge the gap between these two areas. Lubricants: Introduction to Properties and Performance provides an easy to understand overview of tribology and lubricant chemistry. The first part of the book is theoretical and provides an introduction to tribological contact, friction, wear and lubrication, as well as the basic concepts regarding properties and the most commonly made analyses on lubricants. Base fluids and their properties and common additives used in lubricants are also covered. The second part of the book is hands-on and introduces the reader to the actual formulations and the evaluation of their performance. Different applications and their corresponding lubricant formulations are considered and tribological test methods are discussed. Finally used oil characterisation and surface characterisation are covered which give the reader an introduction to different methods of characterising used oils and surfaces, respectively. Key features: Combines chemistry and tribology of lubricants into one unified approach Covers the fundamental theory, describing lubricant properties as well as base fluids and additives Contains practical information on the formulations of lubricants and evaluates their performance Considers applications of lubricants in hydraulics, gears and combustion engines Lubricants: Introduction to Properties and Performance is a comprehensive reference for industry practitioners (tribologists, lubricant technicians, and lubricant chemists, etc) and is also an excellent source of information for graduate and undergraduate students.
