Effect of Organic Acid on Friction and Wear Properties of DLC Coating

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating provides low friction properties without lubricants and, with lubricants, should provide super low friction. In this study, to find the possibility of the environment-friendly material combination that can provide super low friction (with a coefficient of friction l...
