Lubrication—Eighteen years after, or the Tribolation of a Chemist

Abstract

WHEN SCIENTIFIC LUBRICATION first saw the light in 1948 the Editor kindly suggested that I should contribute, and I risked my reputation in writing an article on “Future Lubricants”, full of faith in a Synthetic Future and hope of a world in which mechanisms would be made to work in ambiences of climbing temperatures and conditions of increasing pressures. My attitude was Wellsian. The future was bright for the chemist.
