Due to having the potential structure advantage in interfacial compatibility, the 2D MOFs nanosheets were worthy of being expected to improve the dispersion and stability of other 2D inorganic nanomaterials as additive in oil. In this work, the dispersion behavior of 2D ZnBDC nanosheets in oil was studied. Under two kinds of tribological modes (reciprocating ball-on-slider mode and ball-on-ball mode), for the first time we comprehensively studied the tribological behaviors of 2D MOFs based on ZnBDC (BDC = 1,4-benzene dicarboxylate) with the thickness of ca. 3.32 nm. Finally, we intensively investigated the effects of the adding content, load and friction speed to the tribological behavior. The results indicated that there was an evident difference in tribological behavior of 2D ZnBDC nanosheets in oil under two modes.

Surface modification of halloysite nanotubes grafted by dodecylamine and their application in reinforcing polytetrafluoroethylene

Abstract The modification of halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) as fillers is very effective at improving the performance of polymers. A novel modification of HNTs through grafting dodecylamine onto their surfaces was conducted here. Owing to the improvement in dispersibility of HNTs in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the mechanical properties and wear resistance (in particular) of the dodecylamine-modified HNT-filled PTFE composite were enhanced significantly.

HNTs-Templated Preparation of Carbon Nanorods by Hydrothermal Nanocasting Method

Zan Liu Yingying Liu Zhi‐Lin Cheng

A novel method to prepare carbon nanorods through hydrothermal nanocasting method was presented using halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) as the template and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the carbon source. This method involved in three steps, i.e . nanocasting PVA in HNTs, carbonization and etching removal of template. A series of characterization, such as XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, Raman, XPS, SAED and N 2 adsorption-desorption were used to detect the formation and structure of the as-prepared carbon nanorods (CNRs). The CNRs with a 1D rod-like structure were of high specific surface area (408 m 2 ·g -1 ) and possessed typical mesoporous characterization.
