In these cases, the plastic parts may deform under load due to creep prior to experiencing significant sliding wear. Tribological variables such as coefficient of friction and wear rate are ...

The coefficient of Friction of a material is the measure of the sliding resistance of a material over another material. In the case of thermoplastics the mating part is normally steel. When ...

Adhesion of plastic to metal and deformation of the ... which is rigid and strong with good creep resistance. It has a low coefficient of friction, remains stable at high temperatures, and offers ...

This video demonstrates the ASTM D1894 coefficient of friction test on an ADMET eP2 controller. ASTM D1894 is a testing standard employed for determining the friction of plastic film and sheeting.
