| Description |
The sliding wear of isotactic polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and their
blends was evaluated as a function of applied pressure and composition against a stainless steel counter face
in dry condition. Wear rate decreases with the addition of PET in the blend. The wear was observed in two
stages, the moderate wear and high wear while increasing the applied pressure on test samples. The addition
of PET in PP helps in increasing the limit of moderate wear towards the high-pressure side. Microstructure
and worn surfaces of samples were observed by scanning electron microscope. The wear phenomenon has
been discussed based on wear losses and worn surfaces.
