Ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as potential lubricants in 2001. Subsequently, there has
been tremendous research interest in ILs from the tribology society since their discovery as …

Scientific researches have been focused on finding halogen-free solutions as effective as
halogenated ones owing to environmental and health problems in recent years. This fact is …

Leveraging the advantages of shape retention and atomic reconstruction during the
carbonizing of crystalline precursors, we demonstrated an efficient strategy to manufacture …

Due to the increasing demand of low emission and fuel economy, friction modifiers have
been widely used in lubricating compositions to adjust friction and wear properties of …

To mitigate and control friction and wear are the primary goals in tribology for a moving
