“…Comparison with values for free boric acid (principle bands at 500 cm -1 , 880 cm -1 and 1085 cm -1 ) suggest three of these OH-BNNS bands to be associated with the B-OH functional group. [43][44][45] Shifts of 40 cm -1 , 15 cm -1 , and 22 cm -1 are observed for the OH-BNNSs relative to the spectrum of free boric acid spectra. 44,45 This is explained by effect of the bulk h-BN substrate on the vibration of the B-OH groups relative to the vibrational freedom of unbound molecules.…”

“…The low COF and specific wear rate recorded in the present study may be caused by the formation of a tribo-oxide layer with lubricant property. The heat generated due to friction between the sliding surfaces is sufficient for the oxidation of B 4 C (flat material) according to the reaction below to form B 2 O 3 [28,29,31]. The oxygen required for the reaction can be supplied by the surrounding air.…”

“…The coefficient of friction of boron carbide has been reported as low as 0.03, but some reports recorded values up to 0.9 [25][26][27], depending on the load, surface chemical composition, counter body material and humidity. During tribological tests, B 4 C undergoes oxidation, which results in the formation of B 2 O 3 , which further converts to a boric acid (H 3 BO 3 ) film in the presence of sufficient humidity [25,[28][29][30][31]. Boric acid based films reduce the friction by forming a smooth friction surface at the interface, acting as lubricants due to their layered structure [28].…”

“…The presence of humidity in the machining environment is not always deleterious. Low friction coefficient in contact area and enhanced wear performance of such tools is obtained through formation of oxide products of friction-chemical reactions with humidity, resulting by lubricious, layered oxide products of Magnèli phases-type [8,11,12]. This beneficial effect of oxygen-rich environment is observed also in materials containing titanium (Ti3SiC2, TiN) or boron or both of this elements (TiB2, Ti(B)N) to make them "self-adaptive" to frictionwear conditions [13].…”
