Tribology of Polymer Composites: Characterization, Properties, and Applications

Tribology of Polymer Composites provides an exhaustive overview of the latest research, trends, applications, and future directions of the tribology of polymer composites. Covering novel methods for the synthesis of polymer composites and their properties, the book starts by reviewing the fabrication techniques, wear, and frictional properties of polymer composite materials. From there it features chapters looking at the tribological behavior and properties of specific polymer composite materials such as synthetic fiber-reinforced, cellulose fiber-reinforced, wood fiber, synthetic fiber, mineral fiber-reinforced, and thermosetting composites. The book concludes with chapters covering the tribology of polymer nanocomposites and particulate polymer composites and their metal coatings. Applied examples spanning a wide range of industries are emphasized in each chapter.
