Abstract

AbstractAshless and non‐phosphorus hydroxyl‐containing dithiocarbamate‐triazine compounds,2,4,6‐tri[N,N‐di‐i‐octyldithiocarmate‐(2′‐hydroxyl)‐propionylthio]‐1,3,5‐s‐triazine (LDION) were prepared and their tribological behaviour as additives in mineral oil were evaluated using a four‐ball tester. Thermal degradation tests were conducted to identify their thermal stabilities using a thermo‐gravimetric analyser. The worn surfaces were investigated by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X‐ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy. The results indicate that the additive LDION possesses high thermal stabilities and good load‐carrying capacities. Moreover, it has good anti‐wear property at all test concentration and under all test loads. The results of XPS and XANES analyses illustrate that the prepared compounds as additives in mineral oil forms a protective film containing oxidised compounds and organic nitrogen‐containing compounds and inorganic sulfate on the metal surface during sliding process.
