イオン液体の摩擦界面構造に着目した新たな潤滑システム構築への試み

抄録

Ionic liquids have high potential as novel lubricants. In this report, lubricating properties and friction interface structure of cyano-based ionic liquids were investigated. Based on the results of friction coefficient and surface analysis, the formation of adsorption layer by electrical interaction with friction surface achieved friction reduction. These results suggest that the friction coefficient can be controlled by applying an electric potential to the friction surface. This report tested this hypothesis. As a result, this verification experiments were successful in changing the friction coefficient.
