Illustrating their intersecting role in manufacturing and technological development, this book examines tribological principles and their applications in CMP, including integrated circuits, basic concepts in surfaces of contacts, and common defects as well as friction, lubrication fundamentals, and the basics of wear.
Solid Lubrication Fundamentals and Applications description of the adhesion, friction, abrasion, and wear behavior of solid film lubricants and related tribological materials, including diamond and diamond-like solid films.
In our present era of nanoscience and nanotechnology, new materials are poised to take center stage in dramatically improving friction and wear behavior under extreme conditions.
To this point, the field of lubrication has been conceptualized using several noncontiguous modes of operation- boundary, fluid-film, and dry and solid lubrication.
When it was first published some two decades ago, the original Handbook of Lubrication and Tribologystood on technology's cutting-edge as the first comprehensive reference to assist the emerging science of tribology lubrication.
