The morphology and micro structure of the as-prepared samples were analyzed by means of XRD, SEM, TEM, and XPS. The tribological property of the nanocomposite as additive in base oil was evaluated. The results reveal that the in-situ formed potassium titanate nanowires with average diameter of 30 nm and the uniform distribution on the surface of Ti3 C2 Tx nanosheets.Compare to Ti_3 C_2 T_x nanosheets, the average friction coefficient and wear scar width of the oil containing potassium titanate-Ti_3 C_2 T_x nanocomposites are decreased by 4.9% and 22% under the same conditions.The excellent tribological performance is attributed to the synergic effects of the two components in the nanocomposite structure.展开更多
