This structure accounts for the slippery feel of boric acid and the cleavage planes observed in boric acid crystals. Boric acid provides lubricity in products ranging from cosmetics to pencil leads. Although the tribological properties of boric acid have been known and utilized for many years, its lubricating properties were rediscovered in recent years by the materials science community [89].

As the subject of the present book lies at the junction of several sciences, it will be expedient to give some principle terms to be used in further narration. There are three groups of terms related to metal corrosion, composite materials and tribology.

Inhibited plastics are science-intensive products that emerged from the fundamental achievements of electrochemistry, materials science, polymer technology, tribology and a number of other disciplines. Many aspects of their development and adoption in the sphere of preserving metal stocks are related to strategic activities guarded by the state. 

Tribology is a subfield of materials science dedicated to studying the wear of materials. This may include the effects of friction on a material as well as how to better engineer surfaces or lubricate interfaces between surfaces to extend their lifetime.

Tribology is considered by some as a part of Mechanics, and by others as a discipline within Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) at the same level as Mechanics. Our own work seems to support the latter point of view. Tribological characterization of materials deals with friction.

From a basic research point of view, the field of tribology involves the contact of surfaces in relative motion, leading to the introduction of surface science concepts, which are coupled with those from other more traditional scientific fields, such as materials science (including metallurgy) and continuum and fluid mechanics. Even if tribology may be considered a multidisciplinary field,...

Not surprisingly, AES has found tremendous use in the analysis of surfaces of samples in metallurgy and materials science. It has been used extensively in alloy analysis, metal oxidation, segregation, adsorption phenomena, catalysis, electrodeposition, corrosion, films and coatings, tribology, adhesion, and the semiconductor industry.
