Nano-tribological study on a super-hydrophobic film formed on rough aluminium substrates

A novel super-hydrophobic stearic acid (STA) film with a water contact angle of 166^o was prepared by chemical adsorption on aluminum wafer coated with polyethyleneimine (PEI) film. The micro-tribological behavior of the super-hydrophobic STA monolayer was compared with that of the polished and PEI-coated Al surfaces. The effect of relative humidity on the adhesion and friction was investigated as well. It was found that the STA monolayer showed decreased friction, while the adhesive force was greatly decreased by increasing the surface roughness of the Al wafer to reduce the contact area between the atomic force microscope (AFM) tip and the sample surface to be tested. Thus the friction and adhesion of the Al wafer was effectively decreased by generating the STA monolayer, which indicated that it could be feasible and rational to prepare a surface with good adhesion resistance and lubricity by properly controlling the surface morphology and the chemical composition. Both the adhesion and friction decreased as the relative humidity was lowered from 65% to 10%, though the decrease extent became insignificant for the STA monolayer.

走近纳米科技

 纳米科技于20世纪70年代兴起,进入21世纪越来越被大家耳熟。纳米科技在促进科技进步,提高社会文明程度,改善人类生存质量,更新对物质世界的认知及观念上扮演了举足轻重的角色。纳米是长度单位。一纳米为一米的十亿分之一,如果你的拇指指甲盖宽14毫米,这个比例就相当于拇指指甲盖宽度与地球直径间的比例。纳米科技所接触、研究、开发的是100纳米～0.1纳米范围内物质的性质和应用。一个分子或一个原子大小的数量级大致在10纳米。因此,纳米科技也可以说是在分子水平上观察、分析、研究物质的物理、化学性质并加以开发利用。
