TL;DR: In this paper, experimental and theoretical aspects of applying electrochemical methods in tribology are discussed and recent results obtained with passivating metals in the authors' laboratory are presented, and it is shown that these parameters can significantly affect the electrochemical response of a tribocorrosion system.

TL;DR: In this paper, a general framework for the interpretation of electrochemically controlled tribocorrosion experiments involving a sliding contact between a passive metal and an inert counter body is proposed.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of non-electrochemical parameters such as applied normal force, sliding velocity, metal hardness and contact configuration on the tribocorrosion performance of a passive AISI430 ferritic stainless steel sliding against alumina in 0.5 M sulphuric acid has been studied using a tribometer that allowed for electrochemical measurements.

TL;DR: In this article, the degradation of DIN 34CrNiMo6 steel sliding against alumina was investigated in NaOH and in borate buffer solutions of pH 8.4 under electrochemically applied passive potentials.
