Abstract
Tribological properties of imidazolium based ionic liquids confined between two ordered self-assembled monolayers of alkylsilane chains on a silicon dioxide surface were studied using molecular dynamics simulations. Effects of lubricant layer thickness were considered. A critical surface energy was required for the ionic liquids to form a continuous film. This finding was supported through simulations of ionic liquid contact angles on surfaces of different composition.
