Evaluation of erosive wear resistance of TiN coatings by a slurry jet impact test

TL;DR: In this article, a slurry jet was used to evaluate wear properties of thin, single layered or multilayered coatings, and a ranking of wear resistance and correlations to the coating surface hardness measured by nano-indentation tests was given and discussed.

Tribological behaviour of drawn polypropylene

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of drawing ratio on the friction and wear characteristics of drawn polypropylene (PP) has been assessed and analyzed for various normal loads and sliding velocities, and the wear loss values dramatically increase with an increase in normal load, draw ratio, and sliding velocity when the PP pin slides normal to the drawing direction.

A comparison of the gas-blast and centrifugal-accelerator erosion testers: The influence of particle dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of particle characteristics (size, shape and concentration) on particle dynamics in each of these testers was analyzed and it was concluded that the centrifugal-accelerator tester gave closer control of the important erosion test parameters and therefore more consistent erosion test measurements.
