Beschreibung
This book offers a practical introduction to the tribology of low-friction coatings, aimed at students, PhD candidates, and early-career researchers. Drawing on over 20 years of experience, the author presents a concise guide to the synthesis, testing, characterization, and optimization of carbon-based coatings for medical and technical applications. Topics include the fundamentals of friction and wear mechanisms, solid lubricant coatings, diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings and their doping, methods for tribological testing and surface analysis, as well as tribocorrosion and coating–environment interactions. The book highlights best practices, common pitfalls, and insights from both recent literature and the author's own research, providing a compact and accessible resource for those entering the field.
