In this study, CMMCs containing fluorinated graphene oxide (FGO) were uniformly deposited onto AISI52100 bearing steel substrates by electrodeposition in water. These fluorinated graphene oxide-copper metal matrix composites (FGO-CMMCs) exhibited excellent macroscale lubrication as well as enhancing the protection of the metal surface from corrosion, compared to graphene oxide (GO) containing CMMCs and pure copper coatings.
