Abstract

In simple words, tribocorrosion is a material degradation resulting from the combined action of corrosion and wear. More in detail, the ASTM G40-10b defines tribocorrosion as a form of solid surface alteration that involves the joint action of relatively moving mechanical contact and a chemical reaction in which the result maybe different in effect than either process acting separately.
