Abstract
The 23rd International Colloquium Tribology in January 2022 was held for the first time as an online conference only, with about 300 participants. The organising team, speakers and participants therefore made the best of this traditional event in Germany in view of the Covid-19 pandemic, even though the “online conference is not a substitute for a conference on site”, as one participant stated aptly. In almost 140 talks, 8 of which were plenary talks, new findings were reported on the topics of lubricants and additives, measuring techniques, digitalisation, coatings and surfaces, transport and industry, and sustainability. Several presentations were dedicated to the EU project “i-Tribomat”, which will soon be launched as “The European Tribology Centre” that offers services for the tribological characterisation of materials and lubricants.
