Friction and degradation of rubber coatings under fretting conditions

A fundamental study was conducted to analyze the friction and degradation mechanisms of thin rubber coatings used as fretting corrosion inhibitors. Two elastomers, polyurethane and styreneethylene-butylene (SEBS), were investigated. The mechanisms of wear were studied by analyzing wear scars with op...
