title: Ionogels of a Sugar Surfactant in Ionic Liquids.
abstract: Green and environmentally friendly ionogels formed by a sugar surfactant were prepared in two kinds of imidazolium-based ionic liquids. The phase transition from ribbon structures to lamellar structures induced by temperature and the transition mechanism were investigated in detail by means of freeze-fracture TEM and field-emission SEM observations, as well as small-angle X-ray scattering measurements. The rheological properties and tribological properties of two kinds of ionogels were systematically investigated. The difference in the lubricating properties and antiwear capability can be explained well by the mechanical and viscoelastic properties, as well as the different microstructures of samples destroyed by shear forces. This work provides a better understanding of the relationship between the structures, rheological properties, and tribological properties of ionogels.
