Abstract To investigate the effects of phosphorus-containing additives not only on steel but also on aluminum surfaces comprising tribocouples, the effect of phosphates and phosphites on the wear of aluminum was evaluated under boundary lubrication conditions. The chemical reactivity of additives was investigated by differential thermal analysis. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy were used to determine the tribochemical reaction between additives and aluminum. The active lubrication mechanism of P-containing additives with aluminum is proposed.
