Description
Polymer Tribology, Hardcover by Sinha, Sujeet K. (EDT); Briscoe, Brian J., ISBN 1848162022, ISBN-13 9781848162020, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The study of friction, wear, adhesion, and other phenomena resulting from interaction between moving solid surfaces is applied to bulk polymers, reinforced polymers, and polymer films by scientists and engineers in the many fields where such interaction does or might occur. Their topics include a tribo-physical interpretation of polymer sliding mechanisms, the frictional behavior of miniature journal polymer-on-polymer bearings, polymer composites for tribological applications in a range between liquid helium and room temperature, tribological and mechanical properties of mold-in-color polypropylene used in the automobile industry, mechanical properties of thin polymer films within contacts, and tribological studies of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene thin films on silicon surfaces. The studies were commissioned to provide a full reference that would be useful in the laboratory or in the field. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
