In order to elucidate the effects of co-existing additives (S$_{8}$, TBP: Tri butyl phosphate, ZnDTP: Zinc-dialkyl dithiophosphate) and the role of reacted surface film on the friction behavior of MoDTP (molybdenum dialkyl dithiophosphate), a friction experiment using a dual circular pipe edge surface type friction tester and XPS (X-ray photoelectronic spectrum) surface analysis were conducted. Friction reduction with MoDTP lubricant was proved to be greatly influenced by co-existing additive species. It was dependent on the properties of the film formed through the reaction between the additive and the surface. Phosphate film reduced the friction coefficient of MoDTP through suppression of diffusion of Mo compounds towards the metal substrate. On the other hand, sulfate film, which is inherently rich in lattice defects, did not lead to any appreciable friction reduction with MoDTP since the diffusion of the Mo compound towards the metal substrate was not effectively suppressed. With ZnDTP additive, the sulfide film formed through decomposition greatly influenced the lubricating performance of MoDTP. As such, properties of surface films formed from additives were proved to yield significant influence on the lubrication performance of MoDTP.

Factors influencing friction reduction with MODTP(molybdenum dialkyl dithiophosphate) lubricant were investigated through a frictioning experiment using two-cylinder edge surface frictioning tester and XPS surface analysis. The friction reduction effect gained with MoDTP lubricant appeared to be largely attributable to MoS$_2$ formation on the frictioning interface. Under N$_2$ atmosphere, Mo diffused into the metal substrate, easily escaping from MoS$_2$ so the friction reduction effect from MoDTP was not gained. However, when an oxide surface film was preliminary prepared on frictioning surface, this Mo diffusion to metal substrate from MoS$_2$ was effectively inhibited. Then desired lubulication effect of MoDTP was gained even under N$_2$atmosphere. As such, the existence of a surface oxide film on the frictioning surface was concluded to be of essential importance in order to gain a lubrcating effect with MoDTP.

The metal-dithiophosphates as lubricant additives for reducing friction and wear, increasing load-carrying capacity and a antioxidant are very important as new additives developed in these day. The synthetic results of Metal-DTPs were described. The wear test was conducted with 4-Ball machine and wear debris were analyzed by ferrography. The tribological performances of Metal-DTPs were compared with Zn-DTP.

ln this paper, the fuction of molybdenum dialkyl dithiophosphate (MoDTP) as an oxidation inhibitor of mineral oils was investigated and compared with 2,6-Di-tert-Butyl-4-Methylphenol (DBMP). Oxidation tests were conducted using an oxygen absorption apparatus. MoDTP showed anti-oxidation property, and length of induction time prolonged by increasing MoDTP concentration. However the induction time of DBMP was longer than those of MoDTP. The anti-oxidation property of MoDTP was found to be inferior to that of DBMP The capability of hydroperoxide decomposition ability with MoDTP was much greater than that with DBMP. However the rate constant of radical scavenging with MoDTP was much better than that with DBMP. It was found that the performance of MoDTP is exellent with respect to hydroperoxide decomposition but it is susceptible to chemical decomposition. From the fact that formation of phenol was observed when MoDTP was added to hexane solution of cumene hydroperoxide (CHPO), it is indicated that the decomposition of hydroperoxide with MoDTP occurs by means of ionic mechanism.

Three types of bis[3-(dialkyloxylphosphorothionyl) thio-2-methylpropanyloxy]alkane (BAPA) drived from alkane diol were synthesized. The principal chain of each BAPA had a different carbon number, i.e., 6, 9, and 11. The three types of synthesized BAPA were compared to zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates (ZDDPs) in terms of abrasion resistance. A four-ball test was conducted to evaluate the anti-abrasion performance of the synthesized BAPA according to the length of the principal carbon chain. Each product was added to an additive at a concentration of 1% of the base oil weight, and the wear scar diameter (WSD) was measured as 0.472, 0.459, and 0.480 mm, respectively. Among the BAPA compounds, dialkyl dithiophosphoric acid (DDP), which is the side chain of bis[methacryloyloxy] nonane (BMOO9), was synthesized by varying the carbon number, i.e., 4, 8, and 12, and subsequently the 4-ball test was carried out. The WSD was determined as 0.537, 0.459, and 0.531 mm, respectively. As a result, it was found that when a side chain is short, a thin film is formed. In contrast, a long side chain hindered the formation of a film, and hence the best result was achieved when the carbon number was 8. As for the ZDDPs, the WSD was determined to be 0.563 mm, when measured under the same conditions. The measurements confirm that the synthesized BAPA compounds are superior to the ZDDPs as abrasion resistance additives.

최근, 유체윤활영역에 있어서 될수 있는 한 점성저항을 감소시키기 위해서 윤활유의 저점도화가 진행되고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 윤활유의 저점도화로 인한 문제점으로써 금속-금속간 접식부가 증가하게 된다. 금속간 접식이 증가함에 따라 마찰저항이 커지게 되며, 이와 같은 마찰저항의 증대를 방지하기 위하여 마찰조정제(FM)가 자동차 엔진유를 비롯한 각종 윤활유에 첨가되어지고 있다. 또한 윤활유의 사용조건이 가곡(고온, 고가중) 해짐에 따라 첨가제의 다기능성이 요구되고 있는 가운데, 이와 같은 요구를 만족시켜 주기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 최근에 와서 유용성 유기모리브덴계 화합물이 마찰,마모 및 산화방지제로서 주목받고 있다. 마찰, 마모을 감소시키기 위한 목적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 $MoS_2$는 고체윤활제로서 각광을 받고 있지만, 실제사용상의 문제로서 입자의 크기, 분산상의 문제 및 분산제와의 반응으로 인하여 마찰, 마모를 증대시키므로 역효과를 가져 오기도 한다. $MoS_2$와 같은 고체윤활제의 분상상의 무제점을 보완한 유용성 모리브덴계 화합물은 마찰, 마모 및 산화방지제로서 자동차 엔진유를 비롯하여 각종 윤활유에 첨가되고는 있지만 메카니즘에 대해서는 거의 해명되고 있지 않는 현실정이다. 본 연구는 유용성 유기모리브덴계 화합물중의 Molybdenum dialkyl dithiophosphate (MoDTP)의 마찰감소작용을 해명하기 위해서, MoDTP 첨가제의 마찰시험 및 마찰표면의 분석을 통하여 MoDTP의 마찰감소작용의 메카니즘을 명확하게 함을 자적으로 하고 있다.

The dinuclear $Ag_2[Phen]_2[S_2P(OPr)_2]_2$(phen=1,10-phenanthroline; Pr=propyl), was prepared by the reaction of bis(dipropyldithiophosphato) silver(I) complex with 1,10-phenanthroline ligand, and its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. The two dipropyldithiophosphato ligands each bridge two silver atoms to form an eight-membered $Ag_2S_4P_2$ ring, while the 1,10-phenanthroline molecule coordinates to a silver atom to complete the local tetrahedral geometry for the metal ion. The Ag-S bond distances are 2.559(1) and 2.567(1)${\AA}$, and the Ag-N bond distances are 2.366(3) and 2.471(3)${\AA}$.

In order to investigate the stability of the major component of malathion E.C. product, dimethyl S-(1, 2-dicarboxyethoxyethyl) dithiophosphate, toward the quality of glasswares as container, the amount of extractable inorganic components, change of pH and decomposition of the major component of the product were examined during the storage in brown-colored bottles of 100 ml. volume from 3 different companies in comparison with that in a Pyrex flask. 1. Malathion E.C. product was put in three containers A,B and C, and any changes occurring in storage were analyzed at three intervals of 60, 120 and 240 days. 2. It was shown that the amounts of Si, Mg, K, Ca, and Na extracted during these periods of storage differed markedly depending on the qualify of container. Container A revealed ten times higher extraction of Na and Ca than container B and C in a 8-month period. 3. Three commercial containers revealed the shift of pH from 6.5 to alkaline reaction in the storage whereas the Pyrex flask did not show any detectable change. In particular, the pH in container A changed to 9.2 in 60 days and 9.9 in 240 days. 4. The decomposition of malathion was the greatest in container A which showed the decomposition of 7.37% in 240 days. On the other hand, 0.5% was decomposed in the Pyrex flask. 5. The decemposition of malathion had a high correlation with the change of pH of water· in the same container, $r^2$ being 0.899. From the above results, it is concluded that about 10% of malathion E.C. product is decomposed in a year due to the alkaline metallic salts extracted from the container when it is stored in glassware bottles of lower quality.
