Abstract

The kinetics theory of ordered boundary lubricating layer formation is presented. The theory contains the description of the formation of boundary lubricating layer from liquid lubricating media containing tribo-active adsorbing component. The expressions for specific forming time and thickness of the boundary lubrication layer in the conditions of the considered model are defined. The prospects of the mentioned parameters experimental definition they are marked out. The tribological efficiency parameter of tribological additive is introduced. This parameter can be evaluated in model physicochemical researches or by molecular modelling methods.
