The use of asbestos in brake pads is being eliminated due to its carcinogenic effect. Due to
this, there is a need for better alternative in the brake pad material to replace asbestos fibers …

A mechanically interlocked supramolecule polyrotaxane (PR) was utilized as a functional
additive to modify the hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) and cross-linking network of …

Nonrenewable energy has produced abundant waste during tribological applications
because a large portion of energy has been consumed to overcome friction and wear. Solid …

An effort is made to circumvent the negative effects on the outstanding processability and
mechanical properties of poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) when it is blended with solid …

In recent years, cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM) has become an attractive
technology for surface modification and protection. However, due to the intrinsic porous …

The effect of newly synthesized gemini surfactants on the corrosion of carbon steel in 1-M
HCl was investigated. The outcomes show that the inhibition effectiveness of the compounds …

Tribocorrosion is denominated as the interaction between wear and corrosion during sliding
where different parameters such as speed, applied load, total wear distance, stroke length …

Polymer materials have gained widespread usage in the marketplace due to their
lightweight properties, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. However, their susceptibility to …

Fused deposition modelling (FDM) printed short carbon fibre reinforced nylon (SCFRN)
composites were fabricated. The friction and wear behaviour of printed materials were …

In this work, the lubricating performance of 1, 3-diketone oil was tested on steel surfaces with
roughness grades in three different orders of magnitude. The results indicate that 1, 3 …
