Abstract:Moving mechanical systems create a lot of friction; therefore, a lot of the energy produced is used to overcome it. It is vital to find unique ways to develop lubricants that allow for more effective control or decrease friction to reach a sustainable future. High friction, if not efficiently reduced or controlled, can result in higher wear losses and, as a result, shorter system life and lower reliability. Two-dimensional (2D) materials have distinct friction and wear properties from their three-dimensional (… Show more
