Abstract: Three ionic liquids based hippurate were synthesized: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hippurate ([BMIM][Hip]), choline hippurate ([CHO][Hip])and tributyltetradecylphosphonium hippurate ([P44414][Hip]). The corrosion of the three ionic liquids to mild steel and the tribological performances of the three ionic liquids as lubricants the steel/steel friction pairs were investigated by electrochemical measurements and frictional tests, respectively. The traditional ionic liquids [BMIM][BF4] was selected as a comparison. The results showed that traditional ionic liquids [BMIM][BF4] had strong corrosion to mild steel. The three synthesized ionic liquids had very low corrosion to mild steel, and [CHO][Hip] had the least corrosion. The three synthesized ionic liquids showed excellent tribological performances the steel/steel friction pairs, [BMIM][Hip], [CHO][Hip] and [P44414][Hip] were 9.3%, 5.3% and 18.1% of the friction pairs worn by [ BMIM ][ BF4], respectively.
