ABSTRACT
Traditional laser-assisted method (top-down synthesis strategy) is applied in the preparation of carbon dots (CDs) by cutting larger carbon materials, which requires harsh conditions, and the size distribution of the CDs is seldom monodisperse. In this work, heteroatom-doped CDs, represented by N,S co-doped CDs (N,S-CDs), can be prepared successfully by pulsed laser irradiation of heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons-based small molecule compound solution. The friction coefficient (COF) of base oil PAO decreases from 0.650 to 0.093, and the wear volume reduces by 92.0% accompanied by 1 wt.% N,S-CDs addition, while the load-bearing capacity is improved from 100 to 950 N. The excellent lubrication performance is mainly attributed to the formation of a robust tribofilm via a tribochemical reaction between N,S-CDs and friction pairs, and the N,S-CDs can play a mending effect and polishing effect for worn surfaces. Furthermore, the lubricant containing heteroatom doped CDs are capable of being prepared in situ via pulsed laser irradiation of heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in base oil, which can avoid the redispersed problem of nano-additive in base oil to maintain long-term dispersion, with COF of 0.103 and low wear volume ≈1.99 × 105 µm3 (76.9% reduction) even after standing for 9 months.
