TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

The technology proposes a new coating concept with adaptive tribological materials that can alter their surfaces to accommodate broad and variable conditions of space environments and temperatures and minimize friction and wear across wide range of conditions. The coating technology can be applied to any surface of interest via spray-deposition.
