Lubrication and wear protection of micro-structured hydrogels using bioinspired fluids
(American Chemical Society, 2018-11-21)
We report the fabrication and the use of a bioinspired synovial fluid acting as a lubricant fluid
and anti-wear agent at soft and porous chitosan hydrogel tribopairs. This synthetic synovial
fluid is composed of sodium ...
Wear protection without surface modification using a synergistic mixture of molecular brushes and linear polymers
(American Chemical Society, 2017-01-10)
We describe the design of lubricating and wear protecting fluids based on mixtures of bottlebrushes (BB) and linear polymers solutions. To illustrate this concept we used hyaluronic acid (HA) - a naturally occurring linear ...
