Machinery Lubrication Statement of Ownership 2015 in either a carbon or pyrite matrix. These nano-sized sheets are oriented in layers and slide against one another, reducing the generated friction. Organic molybdenum compounds have been shown to work well in conjunction with zinc dial- kyldithiophosphate (ZDDP). Used in engine oils for the better part of 80 years, ZDDP has been one of the most successful additives developed for oils. It has many functions, such as serving as an antioxidant, corrosion inhibitor and anti-wear additive. These additives also have a polar head and an oil-soluble tail structure. They form rela- tively thick, sacrificial boundary films that are much softer than steel or iron surfaces. It should be noted that not only do the polar heads of friction modifiers need to be able to attach to ferrous metals, but they also must be able to attach to the zinc layers that will be present due to the ZDDP. These thick films formed by ZDDP are dependent on temperature and consist primarily of zinc, orthophosphate and polyphos- phate glass, with an increasing proportion of polyphosphate chains closer to the surface. As fuel economy standards become more stringent, more will be required of engine oils. While the technology for friction modifiers continues to evolve, the most effective way to improve fuel economy or energy consumption is to lower the viscosity of the lubricant. However, you can only go so far before losing the hydrody- namic film and operating in either mixed-film lubrication or boundary lubrication. It is in these two lubrication regimes that the use of friction modifiers becomes critical for reducing friction.
