Representative work: Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have manifested a remarkable potential for harvesting environmental energy and have the prospects to be utilized for various uses, for instance, self-powered sensing devices, flexible wearables, and marine corrosion protection. However, the potential for further development of TENGs is restricted on account of their low output power that in turn is determined by their surface charge density. The current review majorly focuses on the selection and optimization of triboelectric materials. Subsequently, various methods capable of enhancing the surface charge density of TENGs, including environmental regulation, charge excitation, charge pumping, electrostati Rapid advances in modern industrial tribo-systems under high temperatures and heavy loads generate a growing demand for lubricating materials used in extreme environmental conditions. Metal-based lubricant coatings with excellent mechanical properties and thermal stability are widely used on core parts to reduce friction in
