Abstract: The research status of self - lubricating ceramic composite materials and self - lubrication of structural ceramics are brefly introduced in this paper . The effect of solid lubricant characteristics , the properties of interface and the effect of tribochemical reaction films are also discussed upon the fficiency of self - lubrication. The current insufficiency about the research of self-lubricating ceramic composite materials is summarized and the possible problems are pointed out for the following study.
Key words: self - lubrication, ceramic composite materials , solid lubrication, tribochemical reaction, dry friction and wear
