Description
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This patent application claims the benefit and priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202211417780.0, filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Nov. 14, 2022, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety as part of the present application.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of lubricating material preparation, and specifically relates to a halloysite nanotube (HNT)-encapsulated ionic liquid (IL) microcapsule, a self-lubricating fiber textile composite, and a preparation method and use thereof.


BACKGROUND

The self-lubricating spherical plain bearing is a spherical sliding bearing, which is composed of an outside race, an inside race, and a fiber textile-based self-lubricating liner material between the inside and outside races. This bearing shows high load-bearing, low friction, wear resistance, long service life, and maintenance-free, and is widely used in key and important parts of aircraft transmission systems, control systems, and power systems. This component has a vital impact on aircraft flight safety. The fiber textile-based self-lubricating liner material has high load-bearing capacity, wear resistance, strong designability, and desirable dimensional stability, and is widely applied in the landing gear, flaperons, rotor systems, aviation engines and other moving parts of aviation devices, showing extremely excellent application prospects.


A large number of studies have shown that micro-nano reinforcement materials can be added to the fiber textile-based self-lubricating liner material to improve wear resistance of the fiber textile-based self-lubricating liner material. However, micro-nano materials generally lead to an increase in a friction coefficient of the liner. For large-size spherical bearings, friction conditions of the bearing during the swing motion are extremely harsh and complex, such that the bearings need to have a stable swing torque. Therefore, during the preparation of fiber textile-based self-lubricating lining materials, both the abrasion of the self-lubricating liner and the friction coefficient of the self-lubricating liner must be taken into consideration during use. Coating a surface of the liner with grease or lubricating oil can effectively reduce a bearing starting torque. However, due to the dense microstructure on a surface of the self-lubricating liner, it is difficult for the grease and lubricating oil to penetrate into the interior of the liner. As the lubricating oil or grease is exhausted during the sliding process, the friction torque of the bearing may change, causing operation unstable of the bearing. Moreover, coating a liner surface with grease or lubricating oil may cause microstructural changes such as swelling of the liner surface, resulting in reduced service life and deterioration of tribology behavior for the liner.


SUMMARY

An objective of the present disclosure is to provide a halloysite nanotube (HNT)-encapsulated ionic liquid (IL) microcapsule, a self-lubricating fiber textile composite, and a preparation method and use thereof. In the present disclosure, the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule is used as a lubricant additive of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite, and can realize solid-liquid composite lubrication of a friction interface of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite. In this way, on the premise of reducing abrasion of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite, a friction coefficient of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite is maintained stable during the friction.


To achieve the above objective, the present disclosure provides the following technical solutions:

    • injecting the IL into the HNT in the mixed dispersion under vacuumizing to obtain an IL-filled HNT; and
    • encapsulating the IL-filled HNT at a tube end with an encapsulating material to obtain the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule.


Preferably, the HNT has an inner diameter of 12 nm to 20 nm, an outer diameter of 45 nm to 60 nm, and a tube length of 0.2 μm to 2 μm;

    • the alkali metal salt of the saturated fatty acid is one or more selected from the group consisting of sodium laurate, sodium undecanoate, and sodium myristate; and
    • the HNT and the alkali metal salt of the saturated fatty acid are at a mass ratio of (0.1-1):1.


Preferably, the IL is one or more selected from the group consisting of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate, and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide; and the inner surface-modified HNT and the IL are at a mass ratio of 1:(1-5).


Preferably, the vacuumizing includes circulating a vacuumizing unit n times; the vacuumizing unit includes the following stages sequentially: a vacuumizing stage, a vacuum maintaining stage, and an inflating stage; the vacuum maintaining stage maintains an ambient pressure of 0.01 atm to 0.05 atm for 5 min to 30 min; n is greater than or equal to 3;

    • the vacuumizing stage has a depressurization time of 10 min to 15 min; and the inflating stage has a pressurization time of 10 min to 15 min.


The present disclosure further provides a HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule prepared by the preparation method, including a HNT and an IL encapsulated in the HNT.


The present disclosure further provides use of the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule as a lubricant additive.


The present disclosure further provides a self-lubricating fiber textile composite, including a self-lubricating textile and a resin and a lubricant additive that are loaded between fibers of the self-lubricating textile, where the lubricant additive is the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule.


Preferably, the self-lubricating textile accounts for 50 wt % to 85 wt % of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite by mass percentage; and the lubricant additive accounts for less than or equal to 3 wt % of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite by mass percentage.


The present disclosure further provides a preparation method of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite, including the following steps:

    • dispersing the lubricant additive in a resin solution to obtain a lubricant additive-resin dispersion;
    • impregnating the self-lubricating textile with the lubricant additive-resin dispersion to obtain a prepreg; and
    • curing the prepreg to obtain the self-lubricating fiber textile composite.


The present disclosure further provides use of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite or a self-lubricating fiber textile composite prepared by the preparation method as a self-lubricating liner.


The present disclosure provides a preparation method of a HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule, including the following steps: dispersing a HNT and an alkali metal salt of a saturated fatty acid in water, and selectively modifying an inner surface of the HNT to obtain an inner surface-modified HNT; dispersing the inner surface-modified HNT and an IL in an organic solvent to obtain a mixed dispersion; injecting the IL into the HNT in the mixed dispersion under vacuumizing to obtain an IL-filled HNT; and encapsulating the IL-filled HNT at a tube end with an encapsulating material to obtain the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule. In the present disclosure, the preparation method modifies an inner surface of the HNT: the HNT is composed of a silicon-oxygen tetrahedron layer and an aluminum-oxygen octahedron layer that are curled and arranged in a lamellar ratio of 1:1. An inner surface of the tube is a positively-charged aluminum-oxygen octahedron layer, and an outer surface is a negatively-charged silicon-oxygen tetrahedron layer. The inner surface of HNT is selectively modified with an alkali metal salt of a fatty acid through electrostatic interaction, thereby facilitating the entry of IL into the lumen of HNT. The IL is introduced into the HNT by vacuumizing and then a tube end is encapsulated to prevent the IL from leaving the lumen of HNT before use. This achieves an effective synergy between the strength properties of HNT and the lubrication properties of IL. Accordingly, the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule prepared by the preparation method is used as a lubricant additive of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite, and can realize solid-liquid composite lubrication of a friction interface of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite. In this way, on the premise of reducing abrasion of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite, a friction coefficient of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite is maintained stable during the friction.


The present disclosure further provides a HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule prepared by the preparation method, including a HNT and an IL encapsulated in the HNT. In the present disclosure, the self-lubricating fiber textile composite is used as a lubricant additive, and can realize solid-liquid composite lubrication of a friction interface of the liner. In this way, on the premise of reducing abrasion of the self-lubricating liner, a friction coefficient of the self-lubricating liner is maintained stable during the friction.


The present disclosure further provides a self-lubricating fiber textile composite, including a self-lubricating textile and a resin and a lubricant additive that are loaded between fibers of the self-lubricating textile, where the lubricant additive is the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule. It can be seen from the friction test results of the examples that when the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule is added at 1 wt %, the self-lubricating fiber textile composite has a wear rate reduced from 0.96×10−14 m3/N·m to 0.74×10−14 m3/N·m, which is reduced by 22.9% compared with the self-lubricating textile material without the lubricant additive. When the microcapsule is added at 2 wt %, the self-lubricating fiber textile composite has a wear rate reduced to 0.50×10−14 m3/N·m, showing a reduction of 47.9%. When the HNT-encapsulated IL microcapsule is added at 3 wt %, the self-lubricating fiber textile composite has a wear rate of 0.54×10−14 m3/N·m, which is slightly increased compared to that added at 2 wt %. This may be because excessive amounts of the microcapsule easily lead to agglomeration of the lubricant additive, thereby deteriorating the wear resistance of the self-lubricating fiber textile composite. Due to excellent lubrication properties of the self-lubricating fiber textile itself, the addition of the microcapsule has a less obvious impact on the friction coefficient. All composites have an average friction coefficient ranging from 0.045 to 0.046.
