| Zusammenfassung: | (S)-2-((1-(Hexadecylamino)-4-(methylthio)-1-oxobutan-2-yl)carbamoyl)benzoic acid (HMTA) was efficiently synthesized and successfully applied as an additive to several types of blank lubricant oils. Initially, HMTA self-assembles to fibrous structures and traps blank lubricant oils to form gel lubricants. The prepared gel lubricants show thermo-reversible properties and enhanced lubricating performance by 3∼5-fold. X-ray photoelectron spectrometry of the metal surface and the quartz crystal microbalance illustrated that there are no obvious interactions between HMTA and the metal surface. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction further confirm that inter/intro-molecular H-bonding interactions are the main driving force for the self-healing of HMTA. Finally, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations show that the number of noncovalent H-bonding interactions fluctuates with time, and this highly dynamic H-bonding network could regulate the self-assembly process and result in the self-healing property of the HMTA organogel, which is consistent with the results of the step-strain tests. Especially, the Hirshfeld independent gradient model method at the quantum level demonstrated that C8/C9 aromatics of 500SN have strong π-π stacking interactions with the aromatic heads of HMTA and van der Waals interactions with the hydrophobic tails of HMTA, which disrupt the self-assembly behavior of the 500SN model. Therefore, the calculation studies offer a rational explanation for the superior lubricant property of the PAO10 gel as compared to that for 500SN |
