Details the design of cost-effective, environmentally-friendly lubricant additive technologies and components for the automotive, industrial, manufacturing, food, and aerospace industries.

Contains a disk displaying current Internet resources for the lubricant industry.

Lubricant Additives presents methods to

• improve the performance and stability of lubricants
• protect metal surfaces against wear
• control deposits and contaminants such as wear debris, sludge, acids, and peroxides
• select lubricant additives for the food industry
• choose the most appropriate ashless additives

Lubricant Additives is a worthy addition to libraries used by mechanical, lubrication, chemical, automotive, aerospace, design, aeronautical, plant, power, system, maintenance, manufacturing, heat transfer, and petroleum engineers; tribologists; research and petroleum chemists; lubricant formulators; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
