FRICTION AND ADHESION OF MONOMOLECULAR COATINGS
Abstract
The paper presents data on measurements of friction and adhesion forces of silicon ball and silicon plate covered by DDPO4 (dodecylphosphoric acid ester), ODPO4 (octadecylphosphoric acid ester), SEBS (poly[styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene]) and OTS (octadecyltrichlorsilane) and others. Tests were performed with reciprocating microtribometer and contact adhesion meter. The experimental results have shown, that coefficient of friction, between a silicon ball and silicon substrates modified by the monomolecular films, are varied in the range 0.05…0.25, with wear-resistance from 20 to 2000 cycles. An ambiguous correlation was found between friction and contact adhesion forces of investigated surfaces.
