Abstract
The critical temperatures of a mineral oil with an additive under friction, the variations of the electron work function on a metal surface when a thin lubricant layer is applied, and the heat of adsorption of oil on a metal were investigated. A variety of alloy steels, a standard oil (mineral oil with a fatty acid), a standard material (steel) and a mineral oil containing a varying amount of surfactant (succinimide) were used. The data obtained confirm the relationship between the temperature stability of lubricant layers on steel surfaces under friction and the characteristics of oil adsorption on steel.
