FEASIBILITY OF WEAR REDUCTION FOR SOFT NANOSTRUCTURED THIN FILM THROUGH ENHANCED ELASTIC RECOVERABILITY AND CONTACT STRESS RELIEF

Feasibility of wear reduction for soft nanostructured thin film through enhanced elastic recoverability and contact stress relief

Abstract This work shows that a soft, thin film comprising randomly aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can reduce surface wear more effectively than a homogeneous thin film because of enhanced elastic recoverability and contact stress relief originating from its mesh structure.To investigate the wear characteristics of the mesh structure compared to t
