What is the difference between antiwear and EP?

Latest company news about What is the difference between antiwear and EP?

Core Difference

 

Extreme pressure (EP) additives tackle metal sintering/welding under "extreme pressure and high temperature", while anti-wear (AW) additives solve wear problems under "medium and low loads".

Key Differences

1. Application scenarios: EP additives are used for heavy loads and high temperatures (e.g., gear transmission); AW additives are used for medium and low loads (e.g., daily engine operation).

 

2. Working principles: EP additives form high-temperature-resistant protective films through chemical reactions to prevent metal adhesion and welding; AW additives mostly form adsorption films to reduce surface friction.

 

3. Common types: EP additives often use sulfur/phosphorus/chlorine-based compounds.
