CRC Handbook of Lubrication and Tribology, Volume 3

The updated second edition of this handbook on the use of lubricants in a variety of end-use applications continues to be a cutting-edge contribution to the fields of industrial lubrication and tribology. This book addresses the latest technology related to testing and maintenance procedures, as well as changes in our understanding of how lubrication principles impact implementation. It includes new international standards on safety, environmental protection, and waste treatment. It also includes a cross-reference of these standards and discusses applications in the microelectronics industry. Read more...
