Abstract
The load-carrying capacity antiwear and friction reduction properties of three S-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl) methyl N, N-dialkyldithiocarbamates added to a synthetic lubricant (pentaerythritol ester) were evaluated using a fourball test machine. The results when compared with those of tricresyl phosphate (TCP) show that these novel compounds are excellent multifunctional additives in pentaerythritol ester and possess better load-carrying capacity, antiwear and friction reduction properties than TCP. The rubbed surfaces were investigated using XPS, AES and EPMA analyzers, and the antiwear mechanism was discussed.
