Experimental Investigation on Friction Coefficient of Engineering Polymers Sliding Against Different Counterface Materials

Experimental Investigation on Friction Coefficient of Engineering Polymers Sliding Against Different Counterface Materials

In this research, friction coefficients of engineering polymers such as nylon and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) are investigated under normal load and sliding velocity. Experiments are conducted when nylon and PTFE slide against different counterface pin materials such as mild steel and stainless s...
