FRICTION-INDUCED IN-SITU FORMATION OF ORGANO-FLUORIDES
摘要
<p>A method for forming in-situ a fluorinated organic compound or polymer film from the friction-induced reaction of an organic material, such as zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP), and a fluoridated material, such as iron fluoride (FeF<SUB>3</SUB>) on or in proximity to a wear surface substrate. Also disclosed is a method for producing a lubricated wear surface by frictionally reacting an organic material and a fluoridated material near a wear surface, where the reaction product is a fluorinated organic compound bonded to the wear surface.</p>
