Molecular behaviors in thin film lubrication—Part two: Direct observation of the molecular orientation near the solid surface

Abstract Over the past twenty years, thin film lubrication (TFL) theory has been used to characterize the molecular behaviors in lubrication films thinner than 100 nm, effectively bridging the gap between elastohydrodynamic lubrication and boundary lubrication. Unfortunately, to date, the TFL molecu...
