Synergistic Enhancement of the Lubrication Performance of Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphate by Coexistence with Ionic Liquid

Ionic liquids (ILs) are being considered as novel lubricant additives to improve the friction and anti-wear characteristics of sliding surfaces. Because ILs consist of only cations and anions, their physical and chemical properties can be easily tailored by modifying their combination. These feature...
