Abstract: | Studies on structural changes in the surface layer of plastics during internal sliding friction (friction upon seizing) of metalthermoplastic systems have been carried out. These structural changes were carried out by means of polarized light microscopy, density measurements, X-ray diffraction and IR absorption spectroscopy (ATR). They were carried out for high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP) and nylon 6 (PA6). As a result it was found that the formation of completely different structures was caused by internal sliding friction. |
