Electrochemical studies of the automotive lubricant additive zinc n-dibutyldithiophosphate

Abstract:

Zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDTPs) are widely incorporated in lubricant formulations as anti-oxidant and anti-wear additives. Recent years have seen the emergence of considerable research aimed at defining the mode of action of these compounds. Despite this, the mechanistic action of ZDTPs in their capacity as both anti-wear and anti-oxidant agents remains ill defined. Previous investigations have used a wide variety of techniques, however, electrochemical methods have been poorly explo...
