Basalt fibre is a promising mineral fibre that has high potential to replace synthetic based glass fibre in today’s stringent environmental concern. In this study, friction and wear characteristics of glass and basalt ...

Although titanium and its alloys own good mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance, these materials present poor tribological properties for specific applications that require wear resistance. In order to ...

The objective of this study was to assess the wear behavior and its effects on the flexural strength of silica-infiltrated zirconia compared to glaze and polishing finishing treatments. To do so, disc-shaped samples of a ...

The wear behaviour of a fine grained and dense CaZrO3-MgO composite is presented. Un-lubricated Pin-on-disc tests at room temperature have been performed using 10 N as normal force and 0.10–0.15 ms-1 as sliding rate and ...
