Abstract
Four kinds of chlorine-containing organic borates were synthesized, and their tribological properties as oil additives were evaluated by using a four-ball machine and a ring-block tester. The results were compared with those of non-chlorine-containing organic borates and cetyl chloride. It was found that the former is much effective in friction, in wear mitigation and in increasing load-carrying capacity than both cetyl chloride and non-chlorine-containing borates. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis shows that the boron adsorbed on the rubbed surfaces occurs in the form of degraded borates, while the chlorine occurs mainly in the form of iron chlorides and chlorine-containing borate.
