Määrimisvõimet
Määrimisvõimet, often translated as lubrication ability or lubricity, refers to the inherent property of a substance, typically a fluid, to reduce friction between surfaces in relative motion. This reduction in friction is achieved by the formation of a thin film between the moving parts, which prevents direct contact and wear. A substance with high määrimisvõimet can effectively maintain this protective layer even under high pressure and shear forces.
The effectiveness of a lubricant's määrimisvõimet is influenced by several factors, including its viscosity, chemical composition,
Applications where high määrimisvõimet is critical include internal combustion engines, gearboxes, bearings, and hydraulic systems. In
