Triboelectric materials
Tribomaterials and Their Applications
Tribomaterials are materials designed to manage friction, wear, and charge generation in various technical applications. These materials are essential in tribology, where they are used to either reduce or utilize friction depending on the need. In modern innovations such as triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) and triboelectric air filters, tribomaterials enable efficient energy conversion and improved particle filtration. Their unique properties are tailored to optimize performance and durability in different environments.
