very fine abrasives in the hibricant, the polishing<br />

wear may become excessive.<br />

Polishing wear can be prevented by using less<br />

chemically active additives .. Asan alternative to<br />

ulfus -phosphorous additives, anti-scuff lubricants<br />

are available with dispersions of potassium borate(13)<br />

which deposit EP films without chemically<br />

reacting w:ith. the metal, Removing the abrasives<br />

in the lubriean; by using fine filtration or frequent<br />

oilchanges<br />

is helpful.<br />

Methods of Preventing<br />

Polishing Wear<br />

1. Use less chemically active anti-scuff additives,<br />

such as borate.<br />

2. Remove abrasives from the lubricant by using<br />

fine filtration or frequent oil changes.<br />

scuffing during the critical running-in period.<br />

The basic mechanism of scuffing is not<br />

understood clearly, but by general agreement, it<br />

is believed to be caused by intense frictional<br />

heating generated by the combination of high<br />

sliding velocity and intense surface pressure,<br />
