This paper reports work on the evolution of films formed by some antiwear additives. Between having an additive solution in a fresh lubricant and the actual deposition of protective films on the rubbing surfaces there is a gap during which the normal actions of a given additive may be affected by the presence of another additive. Film thickness is one of the most important parameters affecting wear. Interference between additives can change the chemical composition and the thickness of the films formed and, consequently, can modify the antiwear properties of the original additive.
