Surfactants play a variety of critical roles in tribology. In
addition to controlling friction and wear, they also allow for
control of a wide range of properties of lubricants, such as
emulsification/demulsification, bioresistance, oxidation
resistance, and rust/corrosion prevention. This book explains
recent advances in the role of surfactants within the purview of
tribology, with an emphasis on product development. Includes
Theoretical, Experimental, and Technological Advances Providing a
unique exploration of the nexus between surfactants and tribology,
this text represents the cumulative expertise of leading scientists
and technologists engaged in the study of surfactants in variegated
tribological phenomena. Organized thematically for easy reference,
the volume covers- * Fundamentals of surfactants * Tribological
aspects of micro- and nanodevices, including micro-patterns of
two-dimensional asperity arrays, MEMS, NEMS, and magnetic recording
devices * Self-assembled monolayers and ultra-thin films relevant
to tribological phenomena, including aspects of organosilane
monolayers, ultrathin self-assembled films, super-hydrophobic
films, MoDTC/ZDDP tribofilms, and surfactant-coated copper
nanoparticles * Polymeric and biobased surfactants, covering
various tribological aspects related to polymeric gels, elastomers
sliding against hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces,
agriculture-based amphiphiles, vegetable oils, and biobased greases
* Surfactant adsorption and aggregation relevant to tribological
phenomena, such as the design of surfactants for lubrication,
aqueous non-ionic surfactant-based lubricants, adsorption and
aggregation kinetics, surfactant and polymer nanostructures, a
Surfactants play a critical role in Tribology controlling friction,
wear, and lubricant properties such as emulsification,
demulsification, bioresistance, oxidation resistance, rust
prevention and corrosion resistance. This is a critical topic for
new materials and devices particularly those built at the
nanoscale. This newest volume will address important advances,
methods, and the use of novel materials to reduce friction and
wear. Scientists from industrial research and development (R&D)
organizations and academic research teams in Asia, Europe, the
Middle East and North America will participate in the work.
The manufacture and use of almost every consumer and industrial
product rely on application of advanced knowledge in surface
science and tribology. These two disciplines are of critical
importance in major economic sectors, such as mining, agriculture,
manufacturing (including metals, plastics, wood, computers, MEMS,
NEMS, appliances), construction, transportation, and medical
instruments, transplants, and diagnostic devices. An up-to-date
reference with contributions by experts in surface science and
tribology, Surfactants in Tribology, Volume 3 discusses some of the
underlying tribological and surface science issues relevant to many
situations in diverse industries. The tradition of presenting new
developments and research that began with the first volume in this
groundbreaking series continues in the third volume. Comprising 19
chapters on various aspects of surfactants in tribology-including
subjects not covered in previous volumes-this book is presented in
four parts: Nanotribology and Polymeric Systems, Biobased and
Environmentally Friendly Lubricants and Additives, Tribological
Properties of Aqueous and Nonaqueous Systems, and Advanced
Tribological Concepts. Topics include tribological properties of
nanoparticles, biopolymer friction, environmentally friendly
surface-active agents, biolubricants, aqueous mixed surfactant
systems, and surfactants in motor oil, drilling fluids, and in
electrowetting for MEMS and NEMS. The information in this volume
provides a cutting-edge reference connecting the fields of
surfactants and tribology as a way forward to novel, enhanced
methods of controlling lubrication, friction, and wear. Written by
a global team of established authorities, this book reflects the
latest developments, highlighting the relevance of surfactants in
tribological phenomena in a broad range of industries. It provides
a valuable resource for readers working in or entering the fields

The premier symposium on Surfactants in Tribology, held in Seoul in
2006, was an enormously successful event that generated a high
level of interest in the topic, leading to the publication of the
first volume in this series in 2008. The tremendous response was
echoed at the follow-up symposium in Berlin that same year, and
leading researchers, many of whom participated in the second event,
were invited to submit chapters for Surfactants in Tribology,
Volume Two. Reflecting the cumulative wisdom of a contingent of
researchers, this text explores all-new topics critical to the
future of tribology. Topics discussed in this second volume
include: Properties of silane, thio, phthalocyanine and

A Comprehensive Review of Developing Environmentally Friendly
Lubricants A push from environmentally savvy consumers along with
recent changes in governmental regulations have paved the way for a
marketplace of products with high levels of environmental
performance. Fueled by the growing demand for biobased lubricants,
Environmentally Friendly and Biobased Lubricants highlights the
development of environmentally friendly additives that are
compatible with environmental regulations and describes the
approaches being used in this emerging area. Derived from research
topics shared over the years at various technical sessions of the
Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE) Annual
Meetings, the book includes a critical assessment of gaps and
weaknesses in the field of environmentally friendly fluids and
biobased lubricants. Each chapter is written by authors selected
from the environmentally friendly fluids and biobased lubricants
sessions of STLE and also incorporates input from prominent
researchers invited to take part in the book. Expert contributors
discuss the control, production, usage, and disposal of lubricants;
factor in related policies, laws, and regulations around the world;
and include case studies demonstrating the uses and values of
commercially viable biobased lubricants. The book is divided into
five sections that cover advanced environmentally friendly base
oils and feedstocks, biobased hydraulic lubricants and
biodegradability, chemically/enzymatically modified environmentally
friendly base oils, vegetable oil-based environmentally friendly
fluids, and additives for environmentally friendly fluids.

Surface science and tribology play very critical roles in many
industries. Manufacture and use of almost all consumer and
industrial products rely on the application of advanced surface and
tribological knowledge. The fourth in a series, Surfactants in
Tribology, Volume 4 provides an update on research and development
activities connecting surfactants and tribological phenomena.
Written by renowned subject matter experts, the book demonstrates
how improved design of surfactants can be harnessed to control
tribological phenomena. Profusely illustrated and copiously
referenced, the chapters also discuss novel approaches to control
tribological phenomena using surfactants including green
surfactants. It also discusses the underlying tribological and
surface science issues relevant to many situations in diverse
industries. The information in this volume provides a cutting-edge
reference connecting the fields of surfactants and tribology as a
way forward to novel, enhanced methods of controlling lubrication,
friction, and wear. It reflects the latest developments,
highlighting the relevance of surfactants in tribological phenomena
in a broad range of industries. As we learn more about the
connection between surfactants and tribology, new and improved ways
to control lubrication, friction, and wear utilizing surfactants
will emerge. This book takes us farther on the path towards this
goal.
