Abstract

We characterized the friction and adsorption properties of an oleic acid-based gemini amphiphile having two carboxylic acid headgroups. We employed silica as a solid material, and diethyl sebacate and bis (2-ethylhexyl) sebacate as polar ester oils. Oleic acid and stearic acid were used as comparative amphiphilic materials. These amphiphiles were soluble in the ester oils, and the solubility of the gemini amphiphile was lower than that of the other two amphiphiles. Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring measurements suggested that the gemini amphiphile had greater adsorption capability than the two comparative amphiphiles. The greater adsorption density of the gemini amphiphile resulted in the formation of a rigid interfacial film, as suggested by the normal force curves obtained by atomic force microscopy (AFM). We assessed the friction property of these systems using a ball-on-plate-type friction analyzer and by friction-mode AFM (friction force curve). These measurements confirmed that the gemini amphiphile had a smaller kinetic friction coefficient than that of the other two amphiphiles. These results suggest the potential of the gemini amphiphile as a friction modifier in polar oils.
