  1. 1. Triboactive Component Coatings : Tribological Testing and Microanalysis of Low-Friction Tribofilms

    Author : Fredrik Gustavsson; Staffan Jacobson; Bojan Podgornik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribofilms; low-friction coatings; tungsten disulfide; TEM; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Abstract : Coatings are often used on critical components in machines and engines to reduce wear and to provide low friction in order to reduce energy losses and the environmental impact.A triboactive coating not only provides this desired performance, it also actively maintains the low friction by a structural or chemical change in a very thin top layer of these already micrometer thin coatings.
