Measuring adhesion and friction of polymer nanofibers

04.01.2021 tribonet 144 Views

Nanofibers are tiny fibers with diameters measured in the nanometer range. They can be generated by a variety of methods, from various different polymers, therefore they can exhibit different physical properties with different application potentials. […]
