Revitalization — "bringing back to life"The word revitalization (Latin. vita — life) can be liter
ally interpreted as "bringing back to life". The discov
ery of the revitalization phenomenon is based on the
unique physical and chemical processes as a result of
friction which occurs under specific conditions. In
brief, the essence of the phenomenon is as follows:
when a mechanism is operating, stress is formed on
the friction surfaces. Under high load excessive ther
mal energy is released destroying and wearing parts.
However, if a unique building material — revitalizant
is introduced to the friction area, it converts the exces
sive energy to form a new coating. Therefore from fric
tion's destructive energy positive conditions are
formed. The energy of destructions turns into the
energy of creation!
How wear and tear usually occurs
Let's consider the friction surface under normal operat
ing conditions. We can see clear traces of wear and tear.
If you look closely: the marked area is the area of abnor
mal surface activity. Here, the metal atoms have an
uncompensated double bond: such atoms can easily be
"grabbed", "loosen" and "torn" away from the matrix by
increasing stress.
Imagine a tree on the edge of a brink. The soil erodes under
influence of the wind and water, and the roots of tree
become exposed. The binding between the tree and the
soil becomes very weak and strong wind can easily uproot
the tree.
The same process occurs with the metal surface when it
wears. The atoms easily break away and the destruction of
the surface begins. Moreover, the whole groups of atoms
can break away under extreme loads. This results in a cata
strophic wear.
