Answer:
Explanation:The base oil of the lubricant acts as a carrier to effectively deposit the additives where they are needed. As the additives make contact with the metal, they bond to the surface to form a sacrificial layer that prevents wear to the metal itself. ... As a shaft rotates within a journal bearing, it also carries lubricant.
