Nanotribological Measurements on Sol-Gel Derived Silica Films
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
The characterization of coated systems by scratch tests usually consists in the empirical determination of wear and friction. In this paper, a theoretical model is presented, which makes it possible to explain the tribological behavior of materials in various scratch modes. Examples of measurements on coated systems as well as on their uncoated substrates confirm the assumptions of the model
