Surfactants in Tribology, Volume 2

Surfactants play a critical role in tribology, as they control friction, wear, and lubricant properties such as emulsification, demulsification, bioresistance, oxidation resistance, rust prevention, and corrosion resistance. Surfactants are a crucial topic for scientists and engineers who are developing new materials and devices, in particular those built at the nanoscale. Edited by a well-known and respected leader in the field, Volume Two of this set focuses on the emerging area of biosurfactants, biolubricants, and bioemulsions. It also covers essential new developments in the more traditional tribology areas.
