Friction modifiers and mild anti-wear agents are polar molecules added to lubricants for the purpose of minimizing sliding and rolling that may occur in a given machine design Article originally ...

The friction modifiers market encompasses additives used to reduce friction and wear in mechanical systems, improving efficiency and extending component life. These are widely used in automotive, ...

Gone are the days where greasing the track passed for a decent friction modification program. While today’s railroads control friction by the kind of lubricant used, where that lubricant is applied, ...

The study of tribology, the science of friction, wear and lubrication, has increasingly benefitted from advances in molecular dynamics simulations, providing detailed atomistic insights into the ...
