RT Generic T1 Active control of friction in electrified ball bearing prototypes using electro-sensitive clay mineral-based lubricating fluids [Dataset] A1 Fernández Silva, Samuel David A1 Delgado Canto, Miguel Ángel A1 Roman Fercheluc, Claudia A1 Amann, Tobias A1 Gatti, Félix A1 Kailer, Andreas A1 García Morales, Moisés A1 Roman Fercheluc, Claudia AB This research highlights the development of electro-active eco-friendly lubricants by dispersing polarizable clay nanoparticles in castor oil. These smart fluids exhibit controllable viscosity and friction properties under applied electric fields, enabling reversible tuning of lubrication performance. Experiments showed enhanced friction control, improved lubricant retention, and promising dielectric strength, pointing to a sustainable approach for actively managing friction and load-bearing in mechanical systems through electric field modulation.
