Abstract:Many laboratory tribology test machines are available for evaluating the effect of different lubricants and different operating conditions on friction. For the Mini Traction Machine (MTM) there is much published data that shows how the measured friction coefficient varies with operating conditions and lubricant type. Fully formulated lubricants containing the anti-wear additive ZDDP have often been found to have a significantly higher friction coefficient, which persists to higher speeds, compared to base oils… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
