Modeling and simulation of depletion kinetics and mechanisms of nanostructured polymeric lubricants

Nanostructured perfluoropolyether (PFPE) films have drawn great interest in micro- and nano-electro-mechanical systems. In particular, PFPEs are commonly used as lubricant layers to reduce friction and wear between flying heads and rotating disks in hard disk drives (HDDs). However, the need for ult...
