Abstract

The syntheses of 2-(n-alkyldithio)-benzoxazoles are described. Their wear and friction performances are examined in liquid paraffin using a four-ball machine. The synthesized products have been found to exhibit appreciable antiwear capability. The effect of additive chain length on wear scar diameter and friction coefficient is investigated under different test conditions. The film formed by the additive during the sliding process was investigated by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
