Advanced lubricants for CO2 emission reduction: effects of shear on reverse cylindrical/wormlike micelles
To determine the effect of shear on micellar alignment and interactions, Rheo-SANS will be used to study reversed cylindrical micelles in d-cyclohexane. Different types of surfactant (Figure 1) will be studied, but at (approx.) the same micellar dimensions. These systems have been previously characterized under equilibrium conditions on Larmor and D11 (RB1920023 and 9-10-1607). This new proposal represents the next step, to investigate shear effects. The results will guide formulation of super-efficient lubricant additives for reducing friction, improving wear, and reducing CO2 emissions from internal combustion engines (ICEs). The work is part of a 3.5 year PhD program (G. Moody) fully funded by Infineum. This is a resubmission of 9-10-1688 addressing the panel comments.
