Friction and wear performance of polyamide 6 and graphite and wax polyamide 6 composites under dry sliding conditions

Huseyin Unal, +1 more
- 15 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the friction and wear performance of pure polyamide-6 (PA-6), 5-wt, 15-wt% graphite filled polyamide (GPF), 4-wt%, and 4-4% wax-filled polyamide composites were investigated using a pin-ondisc tribometer.

Evaluation of creep behavior of high density polyethylene and polyethylene-terephthalate geogrids

TL;DR: In this article, the tensile creep behavior of polyethylene-terephthalate (PET) and high density polyethylenes (HDPE) geogrids was evaluated using five test methods: the short and long-term stepped isothermal method (SIM), the short- and longterm time-temperature superposition (TTS), and the conventional method.

Preparation and characterization of poly(vinyl alcohol)‐based magnetic nanocomposites. 1. Thermal and mechanical properties

TL;DR: In this article, a ferrofluid was prepared from the CoFe2O4 mineralized polymer resin and water, and the results obtained showed that the nanoparticles are dispersed in the amorphous regions of the polymer, the crystalline zones remaining unaltered up to compositions as high as 30 wt %.
