Abstract

Liquid crystals have some tribologically favorable lameliar structure. The Performance of ther mottopic liquid crystal was investigated under elastohydrodynamic condition in terms of traction and film thickness. It exhibited low traction and very thin film thickness, which were almost constant over the entire speed range measured. It was also found to have sealing effect like grease. This work has shown that there exists "potential" for using liquid crystals as lubricants.
