Improved Tribological and Corrosion Resistance Properties of Modified Nanocelluloses as Water-Based Lubricant Additives.

ABSTRACT: The development of water-based lubricant additives is trending toward higher efficiency, energy savings, multifunctionality, and biodegradability. As an eco-friendly nanomaterial, nanocellulose exhibits promising lubrication performance but can corrode steel because of its carboxyl groups. To address this, two types of nanocellulose derivatives─a nanocellulose derivative with diethanolamine grafted onto TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TO-CNF-DEA) and a nanocellulose derivative with diethanolamine grafted onto cationic cellulose nanocrystals (C-CNC-DEA)─were synthesized from nanocellulose obtained through different preparation methods. The derivatives were successfully synthesized using an amide synthesis method, which involved the grafting of corrosion-resistant diethanolamine onto n
