摘要
Oxidized black phosphorus (BP) has been demonstrated as a promising oil-based nanoadditive because of its superior friction-reducing capability. However, the synergistic lubrication effect between oxidized BP and oil at the molecular level dominating the friction properties remains unclear. In this Letter, the synergistic lubrication effect between oxidized BP and two typical oil molecules (nonane and nonanoic acid) was explored with an atomic force microscope. The superlubricity of oxidized BP with an ultralow friction coefficient of 0.006 was achieved in the nonanoic acid environment, exhibiting a 96% reduction compared with that in the nonane environment. There was a confined nonanoic acid layer in the contact zone with a tilt angle of 35° because of the hydrogen bonding interaction, contributing to the superlubricity. This observation sheds light on the exploration of the lubrication mechanism of oxidized BP as a nanoadditive in oil, which reveals the considerable implications for the design of high-performance lubrication system.
