| Research Abstract |
Rheological and tribological properties of nano-confined liquids are becoming important key factor for lowering the environmental load and energy loss. In this study, we advanced resonance shear method, which have been developed by us, and applied for investigating the properties of nano-confined liquids. The method to prepare the smooth metal surfaces such as gold, silver, was established. The rhelogogical and tribological properties of confined liquid crystal under the electric field were investigated. A procedure to investigate the stick-slip friction by the analysis of resonance curve was also established. We have also developed instruments for the study on adhesion of composite materials as well as the X-ray structural analysis of nano-confined liquids to understand the property of confined liquid based on their structures in confined space.
