Partial and complete emission band reversals have been observed in the infrared emission spectra from portions of operating sliding contacts. An elementary analysis has been carried out to show that partial reversals are due to temperature gradients in the fluid film—the film acts both as a radiation-emitter and absorber, and that total reversals—an emission spectrum appears as an absorption spectrum—are likely to be due to a continuum source, such as hot solid asperities. The total energy radiated under the latter conditions exceeds that under the others. A decrease in gap width with increased load was accompanied by a dramatic spectral change in the case of 5P4E polyphenyl ether, which is indicative of molecular alignment.

A study has been made of the degree of separation of mixtures of some terpene hydrocarbons, some of their oxygenated derivatives, two sesquiterpene alcohols, and three monophenols on a variety of columns. Temperature and sample size affected the degree of separation and the solid support Chromosorb W, a calcined diatomaceous earth, was found to combine the advantages of Celite and C-22 firebrick without causing decomposition of the sample at higher temperatures. When Craig polyesters were used as liquid phases, separations equal to those obtained on polyethylene glycol were realized with the added advantage that these produced columns which are stable at 190 to 220 °C. Consequently, sesquiterpene alcohols and monophenols were also separated successfully. Another useful liquid phase for both low and high temperatures was found in a meta-linked polyphenyl ether. Squalene was found to be an efficient liquid phase for the separation of terpene hydrocarbons at 130 °C and lower. The possible application of the present findings for preparative work is discussed.

In a probe-based ferroelectric recording system a protective coating of lubricant provides low friction and a low wear rate as well as allows the continuous contact of the probe tip with the storage medium. SO5, a member of the commercially available electric connector lubricants polyphenyl ether (PPE), was experimentally proven effective as a lubricant in supporting this probe/media interface and has enabled the demonstration of the probe-based ferroelectric recording technology. The unique stability of SO5 lubricant in an electric field and in the presence of electrons makes this liquid particularly suitable for ferroelectric recording storage devices. A broad range of analytical techniques were used to identify this lubricant as a mixture of alkylated diphenyl ethers having varying molecular weight. A thin layer of this lubricant was uniformly coated on the probe media surface through a dip-lubing procedure. Its thermal stability and wettability was investigated in terms of the requirements for the successful application of this unique ferroelectric recording technology. The impact of this lubricant film on the read/write capability, durability and tribological performance was also explored.

A mathematical model for liquid lubricated strip rolling in the full-film regime is developed. The model combines slab plasticity, hydrodynamic lubrication and thermal analyses to relate local and global condition to process variables and material properties. The predictions of the model are compared with experimental measurements of outlet speed ratio, roll separating force and roll torque in rolling 1100-H14 aluminum with a viscous mineral oil and 5P4E polyphenyl ether as lubricants. The excellent agreement which is obtained provides powerful support of the validity of the model.

Several lubricants that are considered candidates for ball bearing applications in the temperature range of 500 to 700 deg F were investigated in full-scale ball bearings and in a rolling-contact fatigue rig. Bearing endurance tests indicate that a synthetic paraffinic oil with an antiwear additive can perform beyond catalog rating at temperatures up to 600 deg F in a low oxygen environment. In a rolling-contact fatigue tester, this synthetic paraffinic oil exhibited at least twice the fatigue life at the 10 percent level of a fluorocarbon and a polyphenyl ether. Based on bearing race groove appearance, elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication was apparent at outer-race temperatures up to 700 deg F.
