Abstract

The second part of this book covers self-lubrication and various issues related to the reduction of friction. Friction and wear during sliding or rolling of solid surfaces are universal phenomena and they reflect the tendencies of energy to dissipate and material to deteriorate, which are consequences of the Second law of thermodynamics. In general, solid surfaces in relative motion require lubrication, which dramatically reduces the extent of friction and wear. The situation when no external lubrication is required is called self-lubrication. There are many mechanisms of self-lubrication ranging from coatings to embedding lubricant into the matrix of a composite material, to self-organized in situ tribofilms, and to biological surfaces.
