Solid lubricants like carbon-based materials,
transition metal dichalcogenide compounds, polymers and soft metals, each with
their specific merits and limitations, pursue the goal of reducing friction and
wear between two rubbing surfaces under substantially dry conditions. Newly
emerging early transition metal carbides and carbonitrides, such as Ti3C2Tx-nanosheets
(MXenes), seem to be a promising candidate to be used as a solid lubricant due
to their weakly bonded multilayer structure with self-lubricating character. For
the first time, this paper aims at addressing the application of MXene
nanosheets in higher loaded rolling-sliding contacts of machine elements by
investigating their friction and wear behavior in thrust ball bearings under
ambient conditions. Thereby, a reduction of the
frictional torque by a factor of up to 3.2, an extension of the service life by
about 2.1 times and a decrease of the linear cumulative wear rate by up to 2.9
compared to uncoated references have been verified. Thus, the Ti3C2Tx-coating
already featured results comparable to reports on graphene, amorphous carbon
coatings or advanced transition metal dichalcogenide, which demonstrates the
tremendous potential of MXene nanosheets as outstanding, next-generation solid
lubricant in machine elements.
