Flexible electro-thermal heating film has caught great attentions for their efficient energy conversion and easy to customization in many fields. In this work, an ultrafast electro-thermal responsible heating film was fabricated via silk-screen printing method by using graphene modified carbon black based conductive ink. The graphene modified carbon heating film (CHF) was able to reach an equilibrium-state temperature with rapid o o o o heating and cooling rate of 5.6 C/s and 15.6 C/s, comparing to the unmodified sample (1.01 C/s and 1.03 C/s), for the high electrical and thermal conductivity and huge heat exchanging area. The steady temperature of CHF was controllable by changing the amount of graphene. A o dramatic enhancement of steady temperature from 38 to 83 C was controlled by changing graphene amount from 0 to 35 wt.%. The facile fabrication and superior electro-thermal performance of CHF make it feasible to scale up and customization for various heating conditions.
Graphene has caught growing interest in the field of lubricant additives for its lubricating and antifraying effect. However, the critical agglomeration and sedimentation of graphene particles strongly impede its industrial applications. Here, we proposed a facile way to massively prepare edge-oleylaminated graphene (EOG) via ball milling method. The EOG was well dispersed in lubricant and showed longer than 8 months stability for its extremely thin structures and strong affinity with lubricant. The viscosity index (VI) of base lubricant was greatly improved from 81 to 119 by adding an optimized EOG amount of 0.1 wt.%. Besides, the wear scar diameter (WSD) decreased from 0.88 to 0.46 mm, while the maximum nonseizure load (P B) and the sintering load (P D) increased 64.86% and 56.18%, respectively. The enhanced VI indicates EOG additive could upgrade the base oil from normal grade to special grade. The obvious improvement of wear resistance and load-carrying capacity demonstrates EOG is an ultrastable and effective additive for specific lubricants.
