RESEARCH
for Grease With Different Additives
The paper present the studies made with some lubricating compositions based on lithium soap
grease and a number of different additives. The friction, wear and EP properties are evaluated at
variable loads and durations using a four-ball machine. The friction coefficient are evaluated at
long durations (30…120 minutes) because show more exactly the comportment of lubricant
compositions. The investigations regard the performance of different additive combinations and
some synergetic effects.
Test duration influence because the wear spot increase and, at the same
load, the contact pressures decrease. The
