Nanotribology is a branch of tribology which studies friction phenomenon at the nanometer scale (see nanotechnology, nanomechanics). The distinction between nanotribology and tribology is primarily due to the involvement of atomic forces in the determination of the final behavior of the system. Gears, bearings, and liquid lubricants can reduce fri...

nanotribology The study of friction at the molecular and atomic levels. This field will become a very important part of production in the years to come, as a new generation of micromachines and nanomachines find their way out of the laboratory and onto the production line. More information about nanotribology is available here.
