Tribological Properties of Lubricating Grease Additives Made of Silica and Silicon Carbide Nanomaterials

Abstract

Nanomaterials have been widely used in many fields due to their special microstructure and quantum size effect. In addition, there are many advantages that other traditional materials do not have. Nanometer silicon dioxide and silicon carbide as inorganic nonmetal high-tech materials have high temperature resistance, no pollution and other properties, and are very suitable for making grease additives. At the same time, it is also possible to improve the tribological properties of grease additives by using unique characteristics such as innocuity and tastelessness. Correspondingly, grease is an additive that cannot be obtained in equipment manufacturing. It is very urgent to continuously study and improve the service performance. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore new routes of grease additives and transmission based on the theory of nano-materials, analyze the development and fusion paths in the application of nano-technology technology, and explore the advantages and disadvantages of application. This article will use the research method of specific analysis of specific problems to make data comparison and draw a conclusion. Through theoretical innovation and exploration, we can find a suitable model to promote the development of industrial additives. The research results show that the amount of lubricating grease used in rolling bearings accounts for 80% of the amount of lubricating grease. Adding silica to lubricating grease can improve the stability of additives by 26% and effectively improve the use effect of lubricating grease. Therefore, combining with the characteristics of the current era, nano-technology is used to fully absorb and reform and actively innovate and improve the technological level. This paper analyzes the different application difficulties and explores the development prospects, thus proposing the realization path of improving chemical coatings. These theories are used to guide innovation and integration, providing valuable experience for the wide application of nanotechnology.
