Abstract  

Two guanidinium ionic liquids were synthesized through a typical two-step way. The thermal stability of the ionic liquids was evaluated by a thermogravimetric analyzer. Their tribological properties were investigated in comparison with phosphazene, perfluorinated polyether and alkyl imidazole ionic liquid. The worn surface was examined by scanning electron microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer. The results show that guanidinium ionic liquids are the best lubricant among the tested lubricants for steel/steel contacts. With the guanidinium ionic liquids as lubricants for the steel/steel couples exhibit the strongest carrying capacity, the lowest friction coefficient and the smallest wear volume.

Key words:  foundational discipline in materials science      ionic liquids      tribological properties      steel/steel contacts
