Aqueous Lubrication with Poly(Ethylene Glycol) Brushes

Hydrophilic polymer brushes constitute a man-made approach to imitating nature’s lubrication mechanisms. A polymer that has been frequently used to explore such systems is poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). While PEG may not be the ideal solution for water-lubricated tribosystems for a number of technical...
