A multi-technique approach to the characterization of iron phosphide tribofilm

open access: yes, 2012
International audienceTribofilms, formed by tribochemical reactions between steel surface and trimethylphosphite in gas phase, have been characterized by various structural and analytical techniques including transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray

Coating sensing strategy for understanding the governing factors of tribofilm growth on diamond-like carbon [PDF]

open access: yes
Tribofilms formed on coating surface can replace the original surface materials and dominate the final tribological behaviors. In-situ identification techniques of additive-derived tribofilm significantly contribute to understanding the tribo-chemical ...

Formation and Function of Low-Friction Tribofilms

open access: yes, 2014
The use of low-friction coatings on machine elements is steadily increasing, and they are expected to play an important role in the reduction of fuel consumption of future motorized vehicles. Many low-friction coatings function by transformation of the outermost coating layer into tribofilms, which then cover the coating surface and its counter surface.

Viscosity and tribology of copper oxide nanofluids

open access: yes, 2008
Nanofluids, a term proposed by Choi in 1995 [1], are composites consisting of solid nanoparticles with sizes varying generally from 1 to 100 nm dispersed in a liquid.

Tribofilm Formation and Friction Reduction Performance on Laser-Textured Surface with Micro-Grooved Structures

open access: yesLubricants
Tribofilms, resulting from tribochemical reactions involving lubricants, additives, and metal surfaces, are pivotal in reducing friction, preventing adhesion, and minimizing wear.

Modelling of wear and tribofilm growth

open access: yes, 2012
Wear is a consequence of nature which becomes costly if uncontrolled. Basic wear protection is provided by lubrication which will decrease the severity of the contact between asperities. If the conditions of a contact are such that there can be no hydrodynamic lift off by the oil and most of the contact occurs in between such asperities, the protection

On the role of tribofilm formation on the alumina drive components of an ultrasonic motor

open access: yes, 2009
Ultrasonic motors typically have a friction drive system to transfer the movement. The miniaturized motor type investigated here has a friction drive system consisting of two drive pads that transfer the high frequency oscillating movement of two ...

Role of friction in tribofilm formation: Tribochemical evolution of proteins under AFM single-asperity friction

open access: yesFriction
Recent studies have indicated that tribochemical reaction layers form on metal-on-metal-bearing surfaces, which may play a significant role in the performance and longevity of artificial joints.
