Abstract

The purpose of the work is to improve the quality of the process of running-in of car engine parts during running-in using the additive of complex action. The tasks are the theoretical substantiation of the formation of transfer films during engine running-in and the conduct of comparative studies of the developed complex additive to M-8-B motor oil. The paper substantiates that in order to improve the quality and accelerate the running-in of car engine parts during running-in, a complex additive is required, which includes both surfactants and chemically active substances. The preconditions for obtaining transfer films on the friction surfaces of engine connections during running-in are considered. A frictional interaction is described in the case when the soft transfer film is strong and fixed on the main material, and the sliding surface coincides with the boundary between the film and the counter body. The presence in the zone of contact of surfactants with metals leads to the implementation of a special mechanism of frictional interaction, characterized by a colloidal system of particles in the lubricant and structural transformation on the interface. Comparative laboratory studies of the proposed additive were performed. The dependence of the moment of friction force on the time of the tests, the surface roughness of the samples worked in different compositions, as well as the distribution of the microhardness of the samples by depth were investigated. Based on the analysis of additives for running-in of engine parts, the use of complex additives containing surfactants and chemically active substances is determined as promising. Based on these studies, an additive containing ferrite spinel has been proposed. This allows you to control the running-in process through the structurally sensitive properties of the spinel composition. The use of the proposed additive of complex action helps to change the structure of the surface layer of the metal during friction under the action of temperature and load, which leads to improved quality of running-in of car engine parts during running-in.
