includes CD-ROM
edited by Leslie R. Rudnick
Details the design of cost-effective, environmentally-friendly lubricant additive technologies and components for the automotive, industrial, manufacturing, food, and aerospace industries.
Contains a disk displaying current Internet resources for the lubricant industry!
Lubricant Additives presents methods to:
- Improve the performance and stability of lubricants
- Protect metal surfaces against wear
- Control deposits and contaminants such as wear debris, sludge, acids, and peroxides
- Select lubricant additives for the food industry
- Choose the most appropriate ashless additives
Lubricant Additives is a worthy addition to libraries used by mechanical, lubrication, chemical, automotive, aerospace, design, aeronautical, plant, power, system, maintenance, manufacturing, heat transfer, and petroleum engineers; tribologists; research and petroleum chemists; lubricant formulators; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
