Abstract

Development of materials has been of great concern for scientists and researchers since ancient times. Lubrication is one such area where lot of work has been carried out by many researchers, especially in the area of solid lubrication. The emergence of solid lubricants has increased the lubrication potential of liquid lubricants many fold times. The term self-lubricating composites have been coined due to the association of solid lubricants with many base materials such as ceramics and metals. Various solid lubricants such as graphite, molybdenum disulphide and boron nitride have been tried by researchers, and amongst these lubricants, fluorides hold an important place. This paper presents a brief overview of solid lubricants along with a detailed description of calcium fluoride and their usage as solid lubricants in various materials, especially in metals and ceramics.
