A labomtory study of adhesion under simulated plastic defonnation conditions on a modified Amsler Mction and wear testing machine was carried out. The test disc pairs (EN31 and mild steel) were rotated in circumference contact with a relative sliding of 10%. The applied load of 400N caused nonnal contact stresses of the order of 1.12 GPa much higher than the yield strength (about O.6GPa)of mild steel which lead to plastic defonnation of mild steel. The worn sur&ces and wear particles were examined for adhesive transfer and sticking by scanning electron microscope. It was observed that the metal transfer was influenced by the natme of lubricants. The paper discusses the influence of additive on adhesion and subsurface defonnation.
