Method of Appraising Adhesion Properties of Lubricants

详细

A new method of quantitative appraisal of adhesion properties of lubricants and their dispersion media, which is based on determination of the forces of adherence between the lubricant and the metallic surface as well as between the elements of the structural framework of the lubricant under the destructive impact of centrifugal force, is described. The results of the investigation on the influence of the base oil type and the nature of the thickener on the adhesion properties of the lubricants are reported.
