Researchers in China have isolated the effects of electronic friction, showing for the first time how the subtle drag force it imparts at sliding interfaces can be controlled. They demonstrate that it ...

Parts of devices that are perfectly smooth can still experience friction because of the electrons within them, but a new method may enable researchers to turn it down or fully turn it off. Controlling ...

A custom line of low-friction compounds for single and dual-layer tube extrusion, injection molding, and blow molding applications has been introduced by Peak Performance Compounding. Described as a ...
