Recent demonstration of two dimensional (2D) solid lubricant materials to minimize friction
to unmeasurable levels (superlubricity) and reduce wear at macroscale propelled further …

In aerospace, aviation, nuclear power, and other high-tech fields, some essential moving
parts must operate under high vacuum, high load, intense radiation, and other conditions …

This paper presents the review of various techniques used to improve surface properties of
bearing steel SAE 51200. The selection of method depends on solubility, adhesion or bond …

Molybdenum dithiocarbamate (MoDTC) is well-known as a friction-modifier in engine oil but
has wear accelerating effects on DLC/steel sliding contact. Since MoDTC was reported …

The commonly accepted interlayer shear mechanism for layered materials as oil additives
remains a challenge with the emergence of two-dimensional materials. In this work, the …

The MoO 3 nanofluid was prepared by mixing deionized water with MoO 3 nanoparticles
and some other organic additives. The tribological behaviors of prepared MoO 3 nanofluid in …

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2) has extensive applications in industries as solid lubricants
and catalysts. To improve the lubricating performance of MoS 2, novel double-hollow-sphere …

WS 2 films with different structures and space lubricating oils are combined to construct the
WS 2/oils composite lubricating systems. Friction and wear of the WS 2/oils systems are …

Increasing transportation and other industrial activities since the beginning of the last
century have been consuming much of our non-renewable energy resources (like …

Solid-liquid lubricating technology is a quite effective approach to achieve long life for
sliding components in space. Herein, the WS 2-Ti films with porous and dense structures …
