Abstract
⺠A space liquid lubricant and two nanoparticle additives were studied under vacuum condition. ⺠In vacuum, the steel balls exhibited transient seizure-like high friction lubricated with MACs. ⺠Sn and Fe nanoparticles could effectively avoid the transient high friction. ⺠Shear modulus and crystal structure of nanoparticles were the main factors. ⺠The main tribological mechanism is the formation of a protective metallic film.
