Title:

LOW-FRICTION LUBRICATION ASSEMBLY

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/126057

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

[PROBLEMS] To provide a low-friction lubrication assembly. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A novel excellent friction lubrication assembly. The friction lubrication assembly comprises a first member which is slidable relatively against a second member. The first member is a member which has chemical affinity for OH groups on its sliding surface. The first member includes one or a plurality of oxygen-containing compounds which are located on the sliding surface of the fist member and can form a tribofilm deposited on the sliding surface of the first member typically through hydrogen bond interaction. The second member has a similar OH end sliding surface. Preferably, the interface supported by the oxygen-containing compound (lubricating agent) between the first and second sliding surfaces has an H- and/or OH-end interface, and repulsion is provided between these interfaces.
