Abstract
AbstractLangmuir—Blodgett (LB) films of 22‐tricosenoic acid and of 22‐tricosenoic acid polymerised in the presence of an electron beam, and in situ composite LB films of 22‐tricosenoic acid/CdS were prepared. The friction and wear behaviour of the LB films were investigated with a ball‐on‐block one‐way reciprocating friction tester. The structures and morphologies of the LB films were analysed and observed using atomic force microscopy. The wear resistance of the LB films was increased after polymerisation of the acid, and the composite LB film of 22‐tricosenoic acid/CdS showed better wear resistance because the inorganic nanocores of CdS acted to resist wear and to carry load. The LB film of the acid experienced structural changes during the friction process.
