IN the early 1960's, I read a teen level novel about Earth passing through the tail of a comet. This caused a breakdown in the surface tension of metals. which caused the fusing of any two metel parts sliding over each other. Pistons inside cylinders, for example. A slow slide back to the 18th century. It was on high school teen readings lists at the time. Thanks for your help (and memory).
