Graphite has a stacked planar sp 2-hybridized C 6 ring structure, displaying a polymorphism
with rhombohedral, hexagonal, and turbostratic. Based on its structure-property relationship …

During the past two decades, diamond-like carbon (DLC) films have attracted an
overwhelming interest from both industry and the research community. These films offer a …

The surface coating field is a rapidly developing area of science and technology that offers
new methods and techniques to control friction and wear. New coating types are continually …

Abstract Newly emerging Ti 3 C 2 T x–nanosheets (MXenes) have attracted considerable
attention in energy storage, catalysis and, more recently, tribology. MXene nanosheets are …

The friction and wear behavior of materials are not intrinsic properties, but extrinsic
properties; in other words, they can drastically vary depending on test and environmental …

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 …

Diamondlike carbon (DLC) films offer enormous possibilities for applications that require low
friction and high wear resistance. The range of physical, chemical, mechanical, electrical …

This review article summarizes the progress of research on carbon nanomaterial-based
lubricants witnessed in recent years. Carbon nanomaterials, such as graphene, carbon …

Highly sp 3-bonded, nearly hydrogen-free carbon-based materials can exhibit extremely low
friction and wear in the absence of any liquid lubricant, but this physical behavior is limited …

Superlubricity refers to a sliding regime in which contacting surfaces move over one another
without generating much adhesion or friction [1]. From a practical application point of view …
