The need for energy efficiency is leading to the growing use of additives that reduce friction
in thin film boundary and mixed lubrication conditions. Several classes of such friction …

Due to the increasing demand of low emission and fuel economy, friction modifiers have
been widely used in lubricating compositions to adjust friction and wear properties of …

DLC films are widely used in different engineering products. However, some problems such
as inadequate toughness, insufficient adhesion and internal stresses affect their …

During the last two decades, the industry (including scientists) has focused on diamond-like
carbon (DLC) coating because of its wide range of application in various fields. This material …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films are generally used in biomedical applications, mainly
because of their tribological and chemical properties that prevent the release of substrate …

Since the publication of the best-selling first edition, the growing price and environmental
cost of energy have increased the significance of tribology. Handbook of Lubrication and …

In this study, the effect of surface texturing parameters on the tribological performance of
amorphous hydrogenated diamond-like carbon (DLC) under oil lubrication has been …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings are beginning to be used on machine components
parts because of their excellent friction and wear resistance properties. It is hence important …

Friction and wear tests were performed to investigate effects of sliding velocity and normal
load on tribological characteristics of a multi-layered diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating for …

Carbon-based coatings are of wide interest due to their application in machine elements
subjected to continuous contact where fluid lubricant films are not permitted. This paper …
