Plastic Co-efficient of Friction - Co-efficient of Friction
The coefficient of Friction of a material is the measure of the sliding resistance of a material over another material. In the case of thermoplastics the mating part is normally steel. When multiplying the co-efficient of friction by the perpendicular force between the two mating sliding faces, this result is the force required to slide the
Acetal | Machine Design
The low friction and good wear resistance of acetals against metals makes these resins suitable for use in cams and gears having internal bearings. The coefficient of friction (nonlubricated)...
Guide to Coefficient of Friction Testing - Industrial Physics
Coefficient of friction testing is a way to find out what happens when two items rub against each other. It can be used to determine the coefficient of friction (COF) value of everything from film covered corrugated products to household items like ceramic tiles.
Advanced Material Solutions Ahead of the 2025 SAMPE
Tivar DrySlide has the lowest coefficient of friction out of any UHMW and Tivar product due to its modified built-in lubricant. This lubricant further enhances the material's sliding properties and allows packages to slide across its surface without sticking or jamming from dirt or debris.
- What factors affect the friction coefficient in plastic forming process?
- Based on the comprehension, generally, there are six main factors affecting the friction coefficient in plastic forming process. They are the kind and chemical composition of the metal material, the interface state of tool and workpiece, deformation temperature, deformation velocity, the contact pressure and degree of deformation.

- How to predict friction behavior in plastic forming?
- While, under the extreme forming conditions in plastic forming, they are too simple to accurately predict the friction behavior. The development of a model suitable for the changing conditions is urgently needed. It requires the model to consider various factors, such as interface pressure, sliding speed, temperature and strain.
- Are Coulomb friction and constant friction models suitable for complex plastic processing?
- The Coulomb friction and constant friction models are still applied in the majority of simulations, but they are not suitable for complex plastic processing because some important factors, such as temperature, material and deformation, are not taken account into the model.
- What are static and kinetic friction coefficients?
- THE DEFINITIONS for static and kinetic friction coefficients are given in the Glossary of this Handbook. The friction coefficient between solids sliding, or about to slide, over one another under the influence of a nonzero normal force is a function of several factors whose relative contributions vary on a case-by-case basis:
