Abstract

A review is given of triboemission of charged particles from ceramics, including metallic oxides MgO and Al2O3, with the goal of providing insight into the role of triboemission in ceramic tribology. Experimental results are discussed for the initiation of triboemission in these materials by tensile deformation, bending, and abrasion. Possible models for these triboemission processes are discussed.
