Better Together: Photoredox/Copper Dual Catalysis in Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 2, January 10, 2025.
A combination of Cu‐ATRP catalysis with photocatalysts (PCs) that absorb visible and/or NIR light exhibits synergistic action at the ppm/ppb concentration level. It leads to very well‐defined polymers with rates depending on the amount and quantum efficiency of PC but controlled polymer architecture defined by the Cu‐catalysts.

Galvanically induced potentials to enable minimal tribochemical wear of stainless steel lubricated with sodium chloride and ionic liquid aqueous solution

open access: yesFriction, 2018
The effect of galvanically induced potentials on the friction and wear behavior of a 1RK91 stainless steel regarding to tribocorrosion was investigated using an oscillating ball-on-disk tribometer equipped with an electrochemical cell.

On the Friction and Wear Mechanisms of Electrified Steel Contacts in CO2: Unveiling the Role of Carbon‐Rich Tribofilms Under Dry Sliding Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 14, 21 July 2026.
This study investigates friction and wear of AISI 52100 steel under dry sliding in CO2, air, and N2 atmospheres, with and without contact electrification. CO2 forms a stable carbon‐rich tribofilm that reduces friction by ∼30% and wear by ∼85%. High‐resolution TEM, EELS, and molecular dynamics reveal pressure‐dependent lubrication mechanisms, showing ...

Superlubricity and tribochemistry of polyhydric alcohols [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 2008
The anomalous low friction of diamondlike carbon coated surfaces lubricated by pure glycerol was observed at 80 °C. Steel surfaces were coated with an ultrahard 1 µm thick hydrogen-free tetrahedral coordinated carbon (ta-C) layer produced by physical vapor deposition.

Modelling Tribochemical Reactions of Lubricants in the UHV Analytical Tribometer

open access: yesTribology Online, 2015
Gas Phase Lubrication (GPL) is used here to lubricate counterparts of a tribological system with a partial pressure of a gas. Because the rheological contribution (Hydrodynamic and EHL) of gas is practically negligible, the role of tribochemical ...
