Abstract

In recent years, lubricant research has developed from empirical to theoretical, from descriptive to rational, from qualitative to quantitative, and from macroscopic to microscopic studies. This review presents the new concept of the quantitative structure tribo-ability relationship (QSTR) derived from the basic principles of quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) theory and reviews the latest advances in research on basic problems of the QSTR of lubricants. Specifically, it highlights a series of recent studies conducted by Chinese scholars and future prospects related to these works. It is noted that the study of lubricants involves many related issues, such that there may be omissions in this review. Additionally, the research topics of the quantitative tribo-ability relationship of lubricants covered in this review are mainly mentioned to introduce various modeling methods, and there may be many similar works that are not covered in this review. Despite these limitations, it is hoped that the described QSTR method will become a useful tool and serve as a reference for tribology research groups in the future.
