Based on the simulation results, it is established that the magnitude of the electrostatic field strength of the friction surface is a more significant factor in the formation of the thickness of the oil film on the friction surface than the electric field of the lubricant. Rational concentrations of fullerenes and vegetable oil as additives in base lubricants have been established, which will reduce the volumetric wear rate of tribosystems.</p> ER -
