Extraordinary Macroscale Wear Resistance of One Atom Thick Graphene Layer
Abstract
During the last few years, graphene's unusual friction and wear properties have been demonstrated at nano to micro scales but its industrial tribological potential has not been fully realized. The macroscopic wear resistance of one atom thick graphene coating is reported by subjecting it to pin‐on‐disc type wear testing against most commonly used steel against steel tribo‐pair. It is shown that when tested in hydrogen, a single layer of graphene on steel can last for 6400 sliding cycles, while few‐layer graphene (3–4 layers) lasts for 47 000 cycles. Furthermore, these graphene layers are shown to completely cease wear despite the severe sliding conditions including high contact pressures (≈0.5 GPa) observed typically in macroscale wear tests. The computational simulations show that the extraordinary wear performance originates from hydrogen passivation of the dangling bonds in a ruptured graphene, leading to significant stability and longer lifetime of the graphene protection layer. Also, the electronic properties of these graphene sheets are theoretically evaluated and the improved wear resistance is demonstrated to preserve the electronic properties of graphene and to have significant potential for flexible electronics. The findings demonstrate that tuning the atomistic scale chemical interactions holds the promise of realizing extraordinary tribological properties of monolayer graphene coatings.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
