Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of lubricating materials technology, specifically relating to an organic-inorganic hybrid material and its preparation method and application, and a self-lubricating fabric composite material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Self-lubricating composite materials with high-performance fiber fabrics as reinforcement and resin as the matrix have become ideal materials for key friction components such as aerospace spherical bearings and high-speed precision bearing gaskets due to their excellent load-bearing capacity, corrosion resistance, and maintenance-free characteristics. Among them, basalt fiber (BF) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fiber blends can synergistically leverage the low friction characteristics of PTFE fiber and the high strength, heat resistance, and cost advantages of basalt fiber, making them of significant application value under high temperature, high speed, and heavy load conditions.
[0003] However, during long-term service, the resin matrix of such composite materials is prone to wear due to frictional shearing, leading to the exposure and shedding of reinforcing fibers, ultimately causing material failure. Introducing nano-lubricating fillers is an effective modification method to improve the wear resistance of the resin matrix. Currently, commonly used lubricating fillers mainly include two-dimensional layered solid lubricants (such as hexagonal boron nitride) and organic lubricants. Hexagonal boron nitride (BN) has a layered structure similar to graphene and high thermal conductivity, while also possessing excellent electrical insulation, making it an ideal high-performance solid lubricant. However, BN nanosheets have high surface chemical inertness, poor dispersion in the resin matrix, weak interfacial bonding, and stress concentration may occur at the edges of their sheets during friction, affecting the durability of the lubrication effect. On the other hand, long-chain fatty acids such as stearic acid, as classic organic lubricants, can effectively reduce the coefficient of friction, but they have low mechanical strength and poor thermal stability. When used alone, they are prone to thermal decomposition or loss during friction, making it difficult to provide long-term anti-wear protection. Furthermore, simple physical blending with inorganic fillers presents compatibility problems.
[0004] In existing technologies, constructing organic-inorganic hybrid fillers to achieve synergistic effects has become a research trend. However, achieving a stable and robust composite between organic lubricating components and inorganic materials remains a challenge. Conventional physical adsorption or blending methods cannot prevent the organic phase from detaching under high temperature or shear stress. Summary of the Invention

[0019] This invention provides an organic-inorganic hybrid material, comprising a matrix, a sheet-like hydrotalcite material coated on the surface of the matrix, and long-chain fatty acids grafted onto the surface of the sheet-like hydrotalcite material; the matrix is a hydroxylated ceramic or a hydroxylated two-dimensional layered material.
[0020] In this invention, the hydroxylated two-dimensional layered material may include hydroxylated boron nitride, hydroxylated graphene, hydroxylated MoS2, or hydroxylated MXene; the hydroxylated boron nitride may be hydroxylated hexagonal boron nitride. In this invention, the hydroxyl groups in the matrix primarily provide nucleation sites and lower the nucleation energy barrier. Furthermore, the hydroxyl groups can form chemical bonds with trivalent metals in the precursor solution of the sheet-like hydrotalcite material (e.g., when the sheet-like hydrotalcite material is a magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxide, a BO-Al bond can be formed), thus anchoring the chemical bonds between the hydroxyl groups and the substrate layers.

In this invention, the carboxyl groups at the ends of the long-chain fatty acids can react with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the sheet-like hydrotalcite material to form bonds, while the long-chain alkyl groups can exert a molecular brush-like effect to prevent the agglomeration of lubricating fillers in the resin matrix.

In this invention, the grafting amount of the long-chain fatty acid refers to the mass percentage of the long-chain fatty acid in the organic-inorganic hybrid material. In this invention, if the mass percentage of the lamellar hydrotalcite material is low, it cannot effectively coat the matrix to form a core-shell structure; if the mass percentage of the lamellar hydrotalcite material is high, it will nucleate independently during the hydrothermal reaction to form large, independent hydrotalcite sheets, rather than nucleating and growing on the surface of the matrix to coat it. In this invention, excessive grafting of long-chain fatty acids will reduce the thermal stability of the organic-inorganic hybrid material.

The warp density is controlled within the range of 326 threads / 10cm, and the weft density is controlled within the range / deviation of 290 threads / 10cm. The fabric is immersed in an alkaline cleaning solution with a pH of approximately 10 at 95℃ for 20 minutes. The immersed fabric is then rinsed with deionized water until the rinsing solution is neutral. Finally, the fabric is thoroughly dried at room temperature (30℃) to obtain the pretreated fabric.
[0051] 10g of phenolic resin was dissolved in 70mL of a mixed solvent of ethanol, acetone and ethyl acetate in a volume ratio of 1:1:1 to obtain a phenolic resin solution with a mass concentration of 0.143g / mL. SA-BN@LDH prepared in Example 1 was added to the phenolic resin solution and ultrasonically treated to disperse it evenly to obtain an impregnation solution. The mass ratio of SA-BN@LDH to phenolic resin was 3:100.
[0052] The pretreated fabric is immersed in the impregnation solution (completely submerging the fabric) for 20 seconds and then dried at 40°C for 45 seconds. The immersion and drying steps are repeated 14 times (to control the mass ratio of the fabric in the prepreg to about 70%) to obtain the prepreg.
[0053] The prepreg was bonded to the surface of a metal carrier (Q235 steel) using phenolic resin adhesive and cured at a constant temperature of 184℃ for 140 min, then air-cooled to room temperature (25℃) to obtain a self-lubricating fabric composite material, denoted as FC-4.
[0054] Comparative Example 1 The pretreated fabric was prepared according to the method of Example 2; The fabric composite material was impregnated and cured according to the method of Example 2, and the result was labeled FC-0 (as a blank control sample). The difference was that the phenolic resin solution in Example 1 was used directly as the impregnation solution.
[0055] Comparative Example 2 The pretreated fabric was prepared according to the method of Example 2; Phenolic resin was dissolved in a mixed solvent of ethanol, acetone and ethyl acetate in a volume ratio of 1:1:1 to obtain a phenolic resin solution with a mass concentration of 0.143 g / mL. Hexagonal boron nitride powder (BN) was added to the phenolic resin solution and ultrasonically treated to disperse it evenly to obtain an impregnation solution. The mass ratio of hexagonal boron nitride powder to phenolic resin was 3:100.
[0056] The impregnation and curing were carried out according to the method of Example 2, except that the impregnation solution was the impregnation solution prepared in Comparative Example 2, and the resulting fabric composite material was denoted as FC-1.
[0057] Comparative Example 3 The pretreated fabric was prepared according to the method of Example 2; 2.5 mmol Mg(NO3)2·6H2O (0.641 g), 1.25 mmol Al(NO3)3·9H2O (0.469 g) and 0.751 g urea were dissolved in 100 mL of deionized water, stirred evenly, and then transferred to a reaction vessel for hydrothermal reaction at 120 °C for 15 h. After the hydrothermal reaction, the solid was centrifuged and washed with water and alcohol, respectively. The washed product was then vacuum dried at 60 °C to obtain magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxide, denoted as MgAl-LDH. Phenolic resin was dissolved in a mixed solvent of ethanol, acetone and ethyl acetate in a volume ratio of 1:1:1 to obtain a phenolic resin solution with a mass concentration of 0.143 g / mL. The obtained MgAl-LDH was added to the phenolic resin solution and ultrasonically treated to make it uniformly dispersed to obtain an impregnation solution. The mass ratio of MgAl-LDH to phenolic resin was 3:100.
[0058] The impregnation and curing were carried out according to the method of Example 2, except that the impregnation solution was the impregnation solution prepared in Comparative Example 3, and the resulting fabric composite material was denoted as FC-2.
[0059] Comparative Example 4 The pretreated fabric was prepared according to the method of Example 2; Phenolic resin was dissolved in a mixed solvent of ethanol, acetone and ethyl acetate in a volume ratio of 1:1:1 to obtain a phenolic resin solution with a mass concentration of 0.143 g / mL. BN@LDH prepared in Example 1 was added to the phenolic resin solution and ultrasonically treated to disperse it evenly to obtain an impregnation solution. The mass ratio of BN@LDH to phenolic resin was 3:100.
[0060] The impregnation and curing were carried out according to the method of Example 2, except that the impregnation solution was the impregnation solution prepared in Comparative Example 4, and the resulting fabric composite material was denoted as FC-3.
[0061] The frictional properties of the fabric composite materials prepared in Examples 2 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were tested under low-speed heavy load and high-speed light load conditions using a Xuanwu No. 3 pin-disc friction and wear testing machine at room temperature. The results of the friction coefficient and volumetric wear rate are listed in Table 1. The test conditions for low-speed heavy load were: rotation speed 240 r / min, load 70 MPa, mating surface GCr15 steel, and test time 2 h; the test conditions for high-speed light load were: rotation speed 600 r / min, load 40 MPa, mating surface GCr15 steel, and test time 2 h.
[0062] Table 1. Friction properties of the fabric composites prepared in Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1-4 under different conditions.
[0063] Based on Table 1, a bar chart comparing the friction coefficient and volumetric wear rate under low-speed, heavy-load conditions was plotted. Figure 3 As shown in Table 1, a bar chart comparing the friction coefficient and volumetric wear rate under high-speed, light-load conditions was plotted. Figure 4 As shown. (Combined with Table 1 and...) Figures 3-4 As can be seen, the pure BF / PTFE fabric composite without filler has a higher wear rate. In contrast, the composite with SA-BN@LDH hybrid filler exhibits the lowest wear rate and a lower coefficient of friction.
[0064] The self-lubricating fabric composites of Example 2 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to tribological performance testing under different conditions, and SEM images were obtained, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown, (a) is a SEM image of the surface of Comparative Example 1 (FC-0) after friction under low-speed heavy-load conditions, (b) is a SEM image of the surface of Comparative Example 1 (FC-0) after friction under high-speed light-load conditions, (c) is a SEM image of the surface of Example 2 (FC-4) after friction under low-speed heavy-load conditions, and (d) is a SEM image of the surface of Example 2 (FC-4) after friction under high-speed light-load conditions. Figure 5It can be seen that under the conditions of 240 r / min rotation speed and 70 MPa load, the pure BF / PTFE material (Comparative Example 1) exhibits severe resin peeling and fiber pull-out on its surface; for the composite material with added SA-BN@LDH (Example 2), no phase separation phenomenon is observed on its wear surface, with only partial resin peeling. Under the conditions of 600 r / min rotation speed and 40 MPa load, the composite material with added SA-BN@LDH (Example 2) has a smoother and more even wear surface compared to the pure BF / PTFE material (Comparative Example 1), showing only slight plastic deformation of the material and forming a continuous and dense lubricating film, proving that the SA-BN@LDH hybrid filler has excellent synergistic friction reduction and wear resistance.
[0065] X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was performed on the SA-BN@LDH prepared in Example 1 to obtain the XPS spectrum, as shown below. Figure 6 As shown. According to Figure 6 In the O 1s spectrum of SA-BN@LDH, a new O=CO peak appears at 532.8 eV, attributed to the carboxylate oxygen of the grafted stearic acid. The MO peak position remains almost unchanged, confirming that the LDH skeleton is not damaged and the dehydroxylation-coordination mechanism is dominant. In the C 1s spectrum of SA-BN@LDH, the area at 284.8 eV is significantly enhanced (segment CC / CH), and a shoulder peak appears at 285.5 eV, belonging to the COM environment, indicating that the carboxylate group forms a covalent bond with the surface Al. Stearic acid is covalently anchored through the Al-OC bond, which improves the interfacial binding ability between organic and inorganic components.
[0066] The self-lubricating fabric composite material provided by this invention exhibits a low coefficient of friction, excellent wear resistance, and stable operation under both high-speed light-load and low-speed heavy-load dry friction conditions. It is particularly suitable for mechanical transmission components such as self-lubricating bearing pads that have strict requirements for friction reduction, wear resistance, and lightweighting.

People can obtain other embodiments based on these embodiments without creative effort, and these embodiments all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
