This book on polymer tribology explores the gradual replacement of
metal components by polymer-based materials (PBM's) that is taking
place in automotive, aviation, aerospace, and other industries. The
positive results include lower weights of components and entire
structures as well as significant energy savings (more miles per
gallon). Metals cannot be scratched easily, while polymeric
surfaces have, in general, low scratch and wear resistance. Teflon
is widely used because of its low friction but the residual scratch
depth in Teflon is three times larger than in polyproplene, not
even comparing with that in metals. Progress in tribology of PMB's
has been hampered by how little we understand it.
