Nanoscale friction characteristics of layered-structure materials in dry and wet environments
Bulk layered materials, such as graphite and molybdenum disulfide, have long been used as solid lubricants in various industrial applications. The weak interlayer van der Waals interactions in these materials generate a low shear slip-plane, which reduces the interfacial friction. The cumulative tre...
