Description
Summary:	Porous oil storage media is the core of self-lubricating rolling functional components. The internal pore directivity of porous oil storage media is different，and it reduces the utilization rate of lubricating oil. In this paper, a new fabrication method of porous oil storage media with directional pores is carried out, and the properties of the porous media, such as hardness, density, porosity, oil storage rate and oil retention rate are evaluated. The experimental results show that the fabrication pressure has a linear positive effect relationship with the hardness of the porous media, and has no significant effect on the density, porosity, oil storage rate and oil retention rate. The mass fraction of pore former has a linear negative effect relationship with the hardness and density of the porous media, and a linear positive effect relationship with the porosity the greater the mass fraction of pore former, the greater the initial oil seepage rate of oil rejection. The internal pores of the porous media have a fibrous structure of the karst cave type, and the internal pores are interconnected and have good orientation. This study aims to provide a lubricating theoretical reference for the fabrication of porous oil storage media.
