Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a potassium stearate boundary lubrication film, which is to compound potassium stearate boundary lubrication material on the surface of a gold electroplating coating or the surface of a metal substrate by dipping and pulling, and utilize the potassium stearate boundary film to be soft And the characteristics of ultra-thin thickness, to achieve a larger area of ​​full contact between the electrical contact friction pair, so as to ensure that the contact resistance will not be significantly affected after the boundary film is added; at the same time, the easy shear and lubricating properties of potassium stearate are used to achieve Significant reduction in the coefficient of friction, thereby greatly improving the wear resistance. The potassium stearate boundary lubrication film is applied to vacuum electrical contact moving parts, and it shows obvious comprehensive advantages in reducing electrical contact noise, friction coefficient and improving wear resistance, so it can be applied to vacuum electrical contact moving parts in the aerospace field, Such as surface lubrication treatment of electric slip rings, sliding barrels, and antennas.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the preparation of a potassium stearate boundary lubrication film and its application on vacuum electric contact moving parts, belonging to the technical field of solid lubrication. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of space technologies such as satellite spacecraft, space experiment stations and interstellar probes, electrical contact components in aerospace systems have become increasingly important. Electrical contact refers to the transfer of electrons from one conductor to another conductor through the contact interface, thereby realizing current transmission and signal transmission. It is responsible for the work of connecting, breaking, diverting and isolating the current of the electronic circuit system, and its performance is directly determined. It affects the reliability, stability and accuracy of the entire spacecraft system. The friction and wear of sliding electrical contac...
