  • low temperature shear induced tribofilm formation from Dimethyl Disulfide on copper
    ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2011
    Co-Authors: Octavio Javier Furlong, P.v. Kotvis, Brendan P. Miller, W T Tysoe
    Abstract:

    The frictional properties of a sliding copper-copper interface exposed to Dimethyl Disulfide (DMDS) are measured in UHV under conditions at which the interfacial temperature rise is <1 K. A significant reduction in friction is found from the clean-surface values and sulfur is found on the surface and below the surface in the wear scar region by Auger spectroscopy. Because the interfacial temperature rise under the experimental conditions used to measure friction is very small, tribofilm formation is not thermally induced. The novel, low-temperature tribofilm formation observed here is ascribed to a shear-induced intermixing of the surface layer(s) with the subsurface region as suggested using previous molecular dynamics simulations. Although the tribofilm contains predominantly sulfur, a small amount of carbon is also found in the film.

  • The surface chemistry of Dimethyl Disulfide on copper
    Langmuir, 2010
    Co-Authors: Octavio Javier Furlong, Brendan P. Miller, Joshua Walker, Luke Burkholder, Wilfred T. Tysoe
    Abstract:

    The surface chemistry of Dimethyl Disulfide (DMDS) is studied on a Cu(111) single crystal and a polished copper foil in ultrahigh vacuum as a basis for understanding its tribological chemistry using a combination of temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), reflection-absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Low-energy electron diffraction reveals that the polished foil becomes ordered on heating in vacuo and displays identical surface chemistry to that found on the Cu(111) surface. Dimethyl Disulfide reacts with the copper surface at 80 K to form thiolate species. Heating the surface to ∼230 K causes a small portion of the thiolate species to decompose to form methyl groups adsorbed on the surface. Further heating results in methane and C(2) hydrocarbon desorption at ∼426 K, due to a reaction of adsorbed methyl species, to completely remove carbon from the surface and to deposit atomic sulfur.

  • influence of Dimethyl Disulfide on coke formation during steam cracking of hydrocarbons
    Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2007
    Co-Authors: Jidong Wang, Marie-françoise Reyniers, Guy Marin
    Abstract:

    The influence of Dimethyl Disulfide (DMDS), which is widely used as an additive in ethylene plants, on coke formation during the steam cracking of hydrocarbons was investigated in a continuous-flow stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) setup with n-hexane as the feed and in a pilot-plant setup with ethane as the feed. Both of the reactors were made of Incoloy 800HT. Experiments were carried out at conditions relevant to industrial steam crackers. DMDS was applied by presulfidation, continuous addition, and presulfidation followed by continuous addition. Application of DMDS suppresses CO production. The influence of DMDS on coke formation was found to depend on the application method and the amount of DMDS used. SEM examination of the coke samples obtained from the steam cracking of n-hexane indicated that application of DMDS leads to a significant change in the coke morphology. EDX analysis indicated that application of DMDS causes a significant change in the metal content and distribution in both the alloy surface...

  • the influence of Dimethyl Disulfide on naphtha steam cracking
    Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2001
    Co-Authors: Inge Dhuyvetter, Gilbert F. Froment, Marie-françoise Reyniers, Guy Marin, Dominique Viennet
    Abstract:

    A pilot unit for steam cracking equipped with a transfer line heat exchanger (TLE) that allows for the study of coke deposition in both the reactor and the TLE is presented. The reactor and TLE are made of Incoloy 800HT. The duration of a coking run typically amounts to 32.4 ks. The influence of different Dimethyl Disulfide (DMDS) addition procedures, i.e., continuous addition, presulfidation and presulfidation followed by continuous addition, on CO production and on coke deposition in the reactor and in the TLE during naphtha cracking is investigated. Presulfidation reduces CO production. However, to obtain a low and stable CO production, continuous addition of sulfur is required. The influence of sulfur addition on coke formation in the reactor can strongly differ from its influence on coke formation in the TLE. In the reactor, as well as in the TLE, the observed influence of sulfur addition is complex and strongly depends on the technique used. The optimal operating conditions for reducing CO production and minimizing coke formation consist of presulfidation followed by continuous dosing.
