Datta, Kali Krishan (1982). The effect of crystallinity upon the friction and wear of graphites. Masters thesis, Aston University.
Abstract
The thesis describes investigations of the tribological behaviour of different manufactured carbons which include Natural Graphite, Electrographite, Reactor Graphite and Baked Carbon grades, having varying amounts of crystallinity, under specified static and dynamic conditions of sliding. The low friction and wear observed in the Sliding of graphitic carbons is associated with the formation of a transferred film on the contact surfaces. The nature of this film and its structure have been investigated to account for variations in the sliding behaviour of carbons...
