Formation on metal surfaces

There is no clear consensus in the literature, regarding the elementary steps of carbon-carbon bond cleavage and formation on metallic surfaces.

Dowden (27) has considered the factors favoring (a) positive ion, (b) negative ion, and (c) covalent bond formation on metal surfaces. 

Tribochemistry Tribochemistry is the science concerned with the chemical reactions in mineral and synthetic formulations affecting the tribofilm formation on metal surfaces during the boundary lubrication processes. What are the differences in the concept of electron sharing in the liquid processes and on metal surfaces ...

The science concerned with all the all chemical reactions in mineral and synthetic formulation affecting the tribofilm formation on metal surfaces. It is a branch of chemistry different types of energy and catalysis. Tribochemistry deals with the relations between tribosystem and chemical changes of the surface layer. 

This volume is a comprehensive text that attempts to deal with the tribochemical reactions in hydrocarbon formulations affecting the tribofilm formation on metal surfaces. The most important factor governing the tribochemical processes under boundary lubrication is connected with the action of soft-core and hard-core reverse micelles, RMs. The book covers a very broad spectrum of topics, e.g., additives interactions, acid-base processes in lubricating formulations and the importance of solubilization. Emphasis is on chemical interpretations of the phenomena of tribochemistry of reverse micelles, surface tribochemistry, and current analytical techniques of metal surfaces.

A symposium about coke formation on metal surfaces has been long overdue, so we were delighted when the Divisions of Petroleum Chemistry and of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry of the American Chemical Society agreed to sponsor such a symposium. Our objective was to gather key experts from around the world to promote a valuable interchange of ideas. In addition, we hoped that the results could be published and made available to individuals who could not attend the symposium.
