A aditiva??o de nanopart?culas em ?leos minerais ? uma delas, para atuarem como lubrificantes, apresentando propriedades tribol?gicas superiores aos comerciais, reduzindo o coeficiente de atrito e o desgaste dos elementos mec?nicos. Essa disserta??o tem como finalidade estudar o desempenho tribol?gico de um ?leo mineral paraf?nico aditivado com nanopart?culas superparamagn?ticas de ?xido de ferro (SPIONs), a fim de avaliar a influ?ncia da inser??o das nanopart?culas nas propriedades tribol?gicas (coeficiente de atrito e desgaste) quando submetido a diferentes cargas e rugosidades da superf?cie. Os ensaios foram realizados no trib?metro SRV-4. Os par?metros analisados foram tamanhos de nanopart?culas (2 nm, 7 nm e 15 nm), a rugosidade da superf?cie, sendo esta polida, lixada e retificada, e a carga aplicada, no modo rampa de 30N a 250N. A caracteriza??o das nanopart?culas foi realizada por Difra??o de Raio X (DRX), Microscopia Eletr?nia de Transmiss?o (MET) e Sistema de Medidas das Propriedades F?sicas (PPMS). Quanto a caracteriza??o do ?leo puro e do ferrofluido, foi realizada por FTIR. Os valores de coeficiente de atrito foram adquiridos durante o ensaio na SRV-4. J? o desgaste da esfera AISI 52100 e do disco AISI H13 foram analisados por Microscopia Eletr?nica de Varredura (MEV), Espectroscopia Raman e Interferometria de Luz Branca, tendo como refer?ncia os resultados obtidos para o ?leo puro. As SPIONs tiveram suas melhores performances como aditivo antifric??o em baixas cargas (30N e 50N) e em superf?cie rugosa (Retificada). / The study of the synthesis and properties of superparamagnetic nanoparticles is growing up significantly along the years, allowing interaction with many knowledge. The nanoparticles additivation in mineral oils is one of them, for its performance as lubrificants, showing superior tribological properties in comparison with commercial ones, reducing the fricction coefficient and the wear of the mechanical components. The purpose of this research is to study the tribological performance of a parafinic mineral oil additived with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs), in order to evaluate the influence of the nanoparticles in the tribological properties (fricction coefficient and wear) when exposed to different loads and surface roughnesses differents. The tribotests were using a SRV-4 tribometer. The test parameters were the nanoparticle size (2 nm, 7 nm e 15 nm), the surface roughness, in this case polished, sanded and grounded, and the applied load steps over time (30 N ? 250 N). The nanoparticles characterization was conducted by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS). About the pure oil characterization and the ferroluids, was performed by FTIR. The fricction coefficient values were obtained during the tribotest in the SRV-4 tribometer. Furthermore, the AISI 52100 stell ball wear and AISI H13 steel disc wear were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Raman Spectroscopy and White Light Interferometry (WLI), using the results obtained for pure oil as references. The SPIONs best results as antifriction additive were obtained with the low loads (30 N and 50 N) and with the rough surface (Ground).
