How it works ?
Before applying RSM, the surfaces of the friction parts gradually deteriorate, contaminating the lubricants with microparticles from the material. Additionally, zones with very high temperatures appear, where the lubricating substances decompose and become unusable.
After adding RSM to lubricants,
a chemo-mechanical process begins in the high-temperature zones that cleans and smooths the friction surfaces.

RSM performs surface transformation at the zones with intensive friction. The roughness of the contacting surfaces become lower. As consequence, the number of the high-temperature zones and the contaminants in the lubricants reduce gradually.
Once the surface transformation is complete, the lubricants are found to be free of the added RSM, and the ONLY friction surfaces are covered with a smooth and highly durable metal-ceramic layer. This layer provides several times lower energy losses due to friction between the parts, and also reduces the wear of both the components and the lubricants.
