▎ 摘　　要

To reduce the agglomeration of graphene and improve the synergistic friction-reducing and anti-wear action of graphene loading copper, one-step preparation of reduced graphene oxide/copper(RGO/Cu) nanoparticles by freeze-drying method was used, the influence of process parameters on particles size of RGO/Cu is studied by orthogonal experiments. The microstructures of RGO/Cu nanoparticles are characterized by SEM and AFM, and the tribological properties of RGO/Cu nanoparticles are studied on a tribometer. The results show that the purity of RGO/Cu nanoparticles prepared by freeze-drying was higher, and the copper nanoparticles 100-200 nm are uniformly attached to the graphene surface. It was found that RGO/Cu nanoparticles have better friction reduction and anti-wear properties than graphene mono-agent as lubricant additive. The synergistic anti-friction and anti-wear performance are better at the addition of 0.10 wt% for RGO/Cu nanoparticles. Compared with the base oil, the friction coefficient decreases by 23.1%, and the width of wear scar decreases by 62.5%.
