Macroscopic Friction Studies of Alkylglucopyranosides as Additives for Water-Based Lubricants

Water-based lubricants might become an interesting alternative to conventional oil-based lubricants and help to reduce wear as well as improve the energy efficiency of transport processes. Since pure water is generally a rather poor lubricant due to its low viscosity and corrosiveness, it must be tr...
