Lubrication (None)

Target: None
Molecular classification: Physical process, Functional property

Overview

Lubrication is the control of friction and wear by introducing a friction-reducing film between moving surfaces in contact. This film can be composed of various substances—most commonly oils or greases—that separate surfaces to minimize direct contact. In biological systems, such as synovial joints, lubrication is mediated by specific macromolecules such as hyaluronic acid and proteoglycan 4.
