Understanding Structure-property Relationships between Tribological Properties and Chemistry of Phosphonium Ionic Liquids
Ionic liquids (ILs) have many advantages compared to conventional organic compounds in terms of biological, chemical, physical, and thermal properties. Therefore, ILs are considered as promising green engineering liquids for replacement of commonly used volatile organic compounds that offer a convenient solution to challenges associated with both solvent emission and catalytic recycling for a diverse range of applications. Here, we primarily focus on ILs as lubricants and lubricant additives. For the application in tribology as lubricants/lubricant additives, phosphonium ILs have been the rising star of the ILs family as they have been reported to exhibit lower wear and friction, as well as superior resistance to corrosion and tribo-corrosion. They are more stable in strongly basic media and more thermally stable than other ILs. Also, importantly, some phosphonium ILs can be less toxic and biodegradable than conventional organic compounds. The physico-chemical properties of phosphonium ILs are tunable depending upon the combination of cation and anion employed. Changes in properties in turn affect the performance of phosphonium ILs as lubricants and lubricant additives. Although there have been many investigations into the relationship between IL properties and ion chemistry/structure, the selection of cations and anions for phosphonium ILs is still very much trial-and-error. To optimize phosphonium ILs for lubrication, a full understanding of the relationship between chemistry/structure and material properties of is phosphonium ILs required. Toward this goal, classical and reactive molecular dynamics simulations are employed to study the molecular scale mechanisms underlying the mechanical response of phosphonium ILs with different cation and anion combinations.First, a non-reactive force field was used to predict bulk properties, including density, viscosity, and ionic conductivity. The accuracy of the modeling approach was evaluated by comparing to experiment/literature data. In particular, the effect of anions on these bulk properties was analyzed. The high accuracy in predicting bulk properties provided confidence for using this force field to investigate the wetting behavior and frictional behavior. Then the wetting behavior of phosphonium ILs on iron was studied for different cation-anion pairs to investigate the interaction of phosphonium ILs with solid surfaces. Results showed that contact angle was affected by the anion and increased as benzoate < salicylate < saccharinate longer alkyl chains in the cations led to lower contact angle. The trends were explained in terms of adhesive and cohesive energies in the simulations, and then correlated to the atomic scale differences between the anions and cations.
Since the effectiveness of lubricants depends on their frictional behavior, viscous friction that is entirely determined by the fluid properties was investigated for different phosphonium cations. It was found that viscous friction is highly related to cation alkyl chains and chain asymmetry under the same operating condition. A predictive model of viscous friction for tetraalkylphosphonium ILs was then established to capture the effect of cation moiety and operating conditions.
Lastly, in many applications, ILs are in direct contact with a metal surface and form a solid-liquid interface and possible corrosion could occur. The origins of corrosion behavior for trihexyltetradecylphosphonium benzoate and trihexyltetradecylphosphonium salicylate on ferrous surfaces was analyzed using reactive molecular dynamics simulations based on the types of bonding and orientation of the anions relative to the surface. It was found that salicylate had more possible bonding scenarios and was more likely to be tilted on the surface than benzoate, affecting the localization of surface-anion bonds and anion coverage density which could affect corrosion mechanisms.Overall, the results of these studies revealed direct correlations between tribological properties of phosphonium ILs and cation and anion chemistry. The structure-property relationship obtained from this study can ultimately be used to guide the design of high performance phosphonium ILs lubricants
