Electro-active control of the viscous flow and tribological performance of ecolubricants based on phyllosilicate clay minerals and castor oil
García Morales, Moisés
; Fernández Silva, Samuel D.; Roman, Claudia; Delgado Canto, Miguel Ángel (Elsevier, 2020-11)
Lubricating fluids with highly improved tribological performance very often entail the use of environmentally disrespectful formulations. Based on organoclay dispersions in castor oil, the present research explores the ... -
Influence of the Nanoclay Concentration and Oil Viscosity on the Rheological and Tribological Properties of Nanoclay-Based Ecolubricants
Fernández Silva, Samuel D.; García Morales, Moisés; Ruffel, Charlène; Delgado Canto, Miguel Ángel (MDPI, 2021-01)
This manuscript describes a rheological and tribological study carried out on eco-friendly lubricants. These ecolubricants were made up of nanoclays as dispersed phase (a layered nanosilicate (montmorillonite Cloisite ... -
Preliminary Insights into Electro-Sensitive Ecolubricants: A Comparative Analysis Based on Nanocelluloses and Nanosilicates in Castor Oil
García Morales, Moisés; Fernández Silva, Samuel D.; Roman, Claudia; Delgado Canto, Miguel Ángel (MDPI, 2020-09)
The newest generation of lubricants needs to adapt to stricter environmental policies. Simple and sustainable formulations with tunable rheological properties under the action of electric potentials may be the key. The ... -
Rheological and Tribological Properties of Nanocellulose-Based Ecolubricants
Fernández Silva, Samuel D.; Fernández Silva, Samuel D.; Delgado Canto, Miguel Ángel; Roman, Claudia; García Morales, Moisés (MDPI, 2021)
Based on the response surface methodology, a rheological and tribological study carried out on eco-friendly lubricants is described. Such ecolubricants consisted of fibrillated or crystalline nanocellulose in vegetable ...
