Tribofilm Formation As a Result of Complex Interaction at the Tool/Chip Interface during Cutting

Tribofilms are dynamic structures that form at the interface during frictional sliding. These films play a significant role in friction control, particularly under heavy loaded/high temperature conditions, such as those found at the cutting tool/chip interface. The thermodynamic aspects of tribofilm...
