Antiwear properties of lubricants modified with metal particles
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2010, Vol 232, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents an influence of lubricant modification with metal particles addition on wear process of tribological couplings elements. Combinations of various materials working in mixed friction condition at rotational or reversible motion were analysed. They were lubricated with, first of all, base oils used for different lubricants compounding which were modified with addition of micro- or nanoparticles of such metals like aluminium, zinc, copper and lead. Presented results attest to positive influence of small quantities of metal particles added to oils on frictional couplings tribological characteristics.<br/><br/>
