A new type of water-based lubrication additive — colloidal polystyrene-carbon nanotubes (PSt-CNTs) has been prepared. Transmission electron microscope shows that the PSt-CNT colloids are tubes with tiny balls in nanometer scale. Four-ball test results indicate that both the load-carrying capacity and anti-wear of the colloidal PSt-CNTs are much superior to those colloidal PSt owing to the additive reinforced by CNTs. The optimum colloidal PSt-CNT content is 1.0 wt.%. The worn surfaces were analyzed using scanning electron microscope. Finally its lubrication mechanism was speculated preliminarily.

The present study reveals the behavior of shear-thickening and shear-thinning fluids in magnetohydrodynamic flow comprising the significant impact of a hybrid nanofluid over a porous radially shrinking/stretching disc. The features of physical properties of water-based Ag/TiO2 hybrid nanofluid are examined. The leading flow problem is formulated initially in the requisite form of PDEs (partial differential equations) and then altered into a system of dimensionless ODEs (ordinary differential equations) by employing suitable variables. The renovated dimensionless ODEs are numerically resolved using the package of boundary value problem of fourth-order (bvp4c) available in the MATLAB software. The non-uniqueness of the results for the various pertaining parameters is discussed. There is a significant enhancement in the rate of heat transfer, approximately 13.2%, when the impact of suction governs about 10% in the boundary layer. Therefore, the heat transport rate and the thermal conductivity are greater for the new type of hybrid nanofluid compared with ordinary fluid. The bifurcation of the solutions takes place in the problem only for the shrinking case. Moreover, the sketches show that the nanoparticle volume fractions and the magnetic field delay the separation of the boundarylayer.

To solve the problems of conventional water-based drilling fluid, a new type of water-based drilling fluid system that comprises of water, multi-functional treatment agent and soluble salts is developed. Multi-functional treatment agent provides the necessary properties and soluble salt maintains the required density. The composition of the drilling fluid is simple and it is easy to maintain. This new drilling fluid has the advantages of good rheology and filtration properties, strong plugging and inhibiting abilities, low solid content, pollution-free, wide adaptability, easy preparation and repeated use. It is a new type of drilling fluid system.

Water-based lubrication has attracted remarkable interest due to its environmental and economic advantages. However, practical applications of water-based lubrication are often limited, mainly because of low viscosity and corrosivity. The use of additives has been proposed to overcome these limitations. In this work, the tribological characteristics of titanium carbide (Ti3C2) MXenes, as additives for water-based lubrication, were systematically investigated for contact sliding between stainless steel under various normal forces and Ti3C2 concentrations. Both friction and wear were found to decrease with increasing Ti3C2 concentration up to 5 wt%, and then increased when the concentration was larger than 5 wt%. The results suggest that Ti3C2 flakes hindered direct contact, particularly at the edges of the contact interfaces. It was further shown that the agglomeration of Ti3C2 flakes may have reduced the hindering when an excessive amount of Ti3C2 (e.g., 7 wt%) was applied. The decreases in the friction coefficient and wear rate with 5 wt% of Ti3C2 concentration w approximately 20% and 48%, respectively. The outcomes of this work may be helpful in gaining a better understanding of the tribological properties of Ti3C2 as a feasible water-based lubrication additive.

With the advantages of no pollution and no poison, the water-based ink, as a new type of green packaging material, is especially applicable to the food, medicine and drink packaging. However, the traditional domestic water-based ink, featuring some disadvantages in the properties of stability, gloss and so on, increasingly evolves into an enormous obstacle to the widespread application of the packaging and the rapid development of the whole industry. In this paper, the polyurethane resin is adopted to replace the ordinary binder resin in the experiment of the water-based ink, and the gloss of the polyurethane water-based ink is also studied. It is shown that the gloss of water-based ink is influenced by the dispersion of pigment, water content and surface tension of water-based ink system, hydrotropic agent and some other factors.

We have developed a system of solar reflective coatings that can reflect the sunlight then reduce the temperature of coated surface. The base layer material, fluorinated polystyrene-acrylate copolymers water-based emulsion was firstly prepared with hexafluoro butyl methacrylate(HFBA), styrene(St), butyl acrylate(BA), methyl methacrylate (MMA) by pre-emulsion copolymerization method. The effect on copolymerization and emulsion properties were investigated, and the polymerization condition was optimized. A hollow ceramic micro-sphere was used as the main reflective functional fillers in the system. We had a test on the practical heat-insulating properties on a prototype device. The result showed that temperature difference of the surface was reached as 6.5 °C. The new type of reflective coatings also has good stability and durability.
