1 Tribological Materials – An Ecosustainable Perspective
-
Prasanta Sahoo
Abstract
Due to the growing environmental concern, an initiative to switch toward ecofriendly options for engineering problems has been observed lately. Tribology is one such domain in which a lot of scope exists for employing ecosustainable solutions. This chapter discusses the tribological materials from an ecosustainable viewpoint. Various surface finishing methods and bio-friendly lubricants have been deliberated. Besides, suitable biomimetic techniques have also been presented. Finally, some aspects touching the economics and ecosustainable philosophies relevant to the subject have been discussed.
