Tribology Series 35. Molybdenum Disulphide Lubrication

Lansdown A.R. — Elsevier Science Ltd., 1999. — 406 p. — (Tribology Series). — ISBN: 0444500324.In the 1970s and the early 1980s there was an enormous volume of research and development into the subject of molybdenum disulphide lubrication, much of which was supported by national governments for the benefit of defence, aviation or space activities. There were already some well-established practical guidelines for deciding when and how to use molybdenum disulphide, but there was still a considerable lack of universally-accepted theoretical understanding of some of the important and fundamental aspects of molybdenum disulphide technology. However, the state of knowledge was growing rapidly.
