This study is the manufacture of solid lubricant oilless bearing using sintered parts. PTFE was as organic solid lubricant and $MoS_2$ as inorganic solid lubricant, and its characteristics were studied. Thickness of lubricant was suited 25~$100\mu\textrm{m}$ for lubricant characteristics. Curring temperature of MoS_2$ film was 12$0^{\circ}C$, 2 hours and that of PTFE film was $260^{\circ}C$, 20 minutes. The solid weight and solid volume of $MoS_2$ film was 51.7% and 27.4%, and that of PTFE was 44.9% and 24.3%. Chemical resistant of PTFE solid lubricant oilless bearing was excellent as salt test was 520hours, and usable temperature range was $-200~+280 ^{\circ}C$. Conduction of electricity can be increase by addition of graphite or $$\alpha$- PbO_2$. The electric conductivity was 100~180$\Omega$.

An analysis model for an elliptical fluid film bearing is described. The principles of hydrodynamic lubrication are outlined together with an expanded version of the governing pressure field equation as related to elliptical journal bearing. Finite element method approximations are given for the pressure field equation and a temperature model, both related to the fluid film thickness. The thermal effects in the lubricant viscosity, lubricant film thickness, variation of the journal rotating speed and influence of turbulence are investigated in this paper A finite element model and an iterative computational process are described, whereby full simultaneously converged field solutions for fluid film thickness, temperature, viscosity, pressure, stiffness and damping coefficient are obtained.

In precision mechanical components that experience sliding, it is important to reduce the friction to minimize surface damage. Particularly, new lubrication methods are needed to reduce friction in silicon based micro-systems applications. In this work, the tribological characteristics of PFPE (Perfluoropolyether) Zdol lubricant on silicon were investigated based on the thickness of the film. The lubricant was coated on silicon wafer specimens by the dip coating method. It was shown that the friction coefficient as well as stiction decreased as the thickness of the film increased. The results of this work may be applied to improve the tribological performance of silicon based micro-system components.

Viscosity index improver (VII) is one of the major additives to the modern multigrade lubricants for the viscosity stability against temperature rise. However, it causes shear thinning effects which make the film thickness lessened very delicately at high shear rate $(over\;10^5\;s^{-1})$ of general EHL contact regime. In order to exactly verify the VII's performance of viscosity stability at such high shear rate, it is necessary to make the measurement of EHL film thickness down to $\~100nm$ with fine resolution for the preliminary study of viscosity control. In this work, EHL film thickness of VII added lubricant is measured with the resolution of $\~5nm$, which will give very informative design tool for the synthesis of lubricants regarding the matter of load carrying capacity at high shear rate condition.

컴퓨터 하드디스크용 윤활제인 PFPE중 Z-DOL과 AM2001을 이용하여 pulling-up speed와 윤활제의 농도를 변화시키면서 윤활제의 두께변화를 알아보았으며, 또한 열처리를 통해 overcoat층인 carbon과 윤활제의 결합특성을 알아보았다. Pulling-up speed가 빠를수록, 그리고 윤활제의 농도가 증가할수록 윤활제의 두께는 두껍게 coating되었음을 알 수 있었으며, 또한 XPS을 이용하여 분석해 본 결과, overcoat층인 carbon에 존재하는 표면 오염물은 C-OH, CO가 지배적이었고, 열처리를 함으로써 overcoat층인 carbon과 윤활제의 결합력이 증진됨을 알 수 있었다.

Elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) film is measured under the condition of viscosity index improver added to base oil. In-situ optical contact method using the interference principle make the measuring resolution of ~5 nm possible and enables the measuring range all over the contact area of up to ~300 $\mu\textrm{m}$ diameter. What is more important to the developed method by the author is that the measurement of EHL film thickness is possible in the range from 100 nm to 2 $\mu\textrm{m}$, which is the regime of worst contact failures in precision machinery. Viscosity index improver (VII) is one of the major additives to the modem multigrade lubricants for the viscosity stability against temperature rise. However, it causes shear thinning effects which make the film thickness lessened very delicately at high shear rate (over $10^5 s^{-1}$) of general EHL contact regime. In order to exactly verify the VIIs performance of viscosity stability at such high shear rate, it is necessary to make the measurement of EHL film thickness down to ~100 nm with fine resolution for the preliminary study of viscosity control. In this work, EHL film thickness of VII added lubricant is measured with the resolution of ~5 nm, which will give very informative design tool for the synthesis of lubricants regarding the matter of load carrying capacity at high shear rate condition.

In load sharing model, the load is supported by the contacting asperities and the lubricants. The asperity contact area of two sliding surfaces are relatively very small as compared with the apparent contact area. The asperity contact pressure is relatively higher than the lubricant pressure. With the combined effect of asperity and lubricant pressure, the surface roughness and temperature rise must be considered to calculate the lubricant film thickness of the line-contact bearing.

At present there are many theories as to how various lubricants used in forging perform the role of reducing friction. Little work has been carried out to determine the validity of these theories for solid lubricants. This paper covers the development and preliminary results of the experiments devised to illustrate the movement of graphite at the workpiece/tool interface in the work forging temperature range. The paper describes the results obtained from upsetting of rings between two flat dies for measurement of lubricant thickness and compaction of graphite for density-pressure relationship. These allowed the lubricant to be exposed to forging conditions and by applying the principles of Male's ring test the simple generation of a value fur friction factor could also be determined. The experiments have been undertaken to examine the behavior of lubricant for shot blasted surface and change of surface roughness. A simple computer model of the interface has been constructed characterizing the graphite layer in an attempt to simulate the boundary mechanics.

The role of viscosity index improver's(Ⅶ) additives for modem engine lubrication is complex. Under the condition of atmosphere or low shear rate, the characteristics of Ⅶ added lubricant is verified and quoted frequently for mathematical model of lubricant behavior. However, recent research shows that added lubricant has the characteristics of shear thinning at high shear rate condition although it performs well enough over the whole range of working temperature. At high shear rate, they show significant decrease of apparent viscosity irrespective of temperature. Many experimental researches verify that Ⅶ added lubricant shows boundary film layer formation on the solid surface as well as shear thinning effect by its polymeric molecular characteristics. The intend of our research is to verify the effects of Ⅶ from the viewpoint of continuum mechanics, because conventional Reynolds'equation with only pressure-viscosity relation cannot fully predict the lubricant behavior under the Ⅶ added condition. In these aspects, Reynolds'equation of Newtonian fluid model lacks the reflection of real fluid behavior and there is no way to explain the non-linear characteristics of Ⅶ added lubricant. In this research, we mathematically modeled the Ⅶ added lubricant behaviors which are the characteristics of non-Newtonian fluid behavior at high shear rate and boundary film formation on the solid surface. The consideration of elastic deformation in the contact region is also included in our computation and finally the converged film pressure and the film thickness with elastic deformation are obtained. The results are compared with those of Newtonian fluid model.
