In spite of the complexities, useful and appropriate weartesting can be performed to evaluate materials for variousengineering applications.
The 7 peer-reviewed papers in this volume: explorestandardization issues on the measurement of elastomeric wear andfriction; review test methods used by researchers to understandtest parameters that affect wear and friction of elastomers;increase the understanding of fundamental properties of elastomersand its effect on wear and friction.
For elastomer/plastic manufacturers, engineers; R&Dfacilities; petrochemical industry managers/engineers. Also fortribologists and lubrication engineers.
