Friction
(OP)
Hey just wandering if anyone knows where i could find information on discovering the frictional characteristics between two materials, eg Aluminium and Polyurethane
Thanks
Thanks

RE: Friction
It appears as if your question needs more focusing.
The surface preparation of both materials and environmental conditions have to be described and documented. Then one should select between static friction and dynamic friction. Various tests were developed by ASTM for widely different purposes.
A set of articles on friction testing and discussion is included in Vol. 8 of ASM INTERNATIONAL Handbook, 9th Ed., with pertinent References.
It seems that a Table of results would not help unless the testing conditions are fully recorded and are comparable with those of the application sought for.
Hoping this helps, with best regards.

RE: Friction
Its dynamic friction, aluminium will be abraided in a circular pattern(this cannot be changed), just wanna know if theres anything i should know before we begin experimenting.
Its for forming process, boss wants to know the frictional characteristics between these 2 materials.

Was just looking to see if anyone recognised the experiment, or knew any good links, cheers
