This book deals with the new and now-expanding field of friction, wear, and other surface-related mechanical phenomena for polymers. Polymers have been used in various forms such as bulk, films, and composites in applications where their friction, wear resistance, and other surface-related properties have been effectively utilized. There are also many examples in which polymers have performed extremely well, such as in tyres, shoes, brakes, gears, bearings, small moving parts in electronics and MEMS, cosmetics/hair products, and artificial human joints. Around the world, much research is currently being undertaken to develop new polymers, in different forms, for further enhancing tribological performance and for finding novel applications. Keeping in view the importance of tribology of polymers for research and technology as well as the vast literature that is now available in research papers and review articles, this timely book brings together a wealth of research data for an understanding of the basic principles of the subject./a
Named one of 10 Best New Management Books for 2022 by Thinkers50 A Wall Street Journal Bestseller "...this guide provides readers with much more than just early careers advice; it can help everyone from interns to CEOs." — a Financial Times top title You've landed a job. Now what? No one tells you how to navigate your first day in a new role. No one tells you how to take ownership, manage expectations, or handle workplace politics. No one tells you how to get promoted. The answers to these professional unknowns lie in the unspoken rules—the certain ways of doing things that managers expect but don't explain and that top performers do but don't realize. The problem is, these rules aren't ...
"She had spent all her family property to help him out, and he had married another woman behind her back." Scum! I will never forgive you again! " Grief and despair met with rogues who took advantage of the situation. Li Shu had a vengeful heart, so she picked up a random man and spent the night with him. She had thought that they would meet by chance, but this man had pestered her and she couldn't get rid of him ...
In his previous life, Lin Chujin had been schemed against by her best friend and died a violent death. A dignified rebirth of a generation after the movie, he was determined to turn the situation around, tear off his best friend with his left hand, kick the white lotus with his right foot, and even pick up a cheap husband for free. One day, Mr. Wen was at work. "Sir, this director has taken a fancy to Madam and is now confessing to her!" On the second day, a director was completely banned from the entertainment industry. "Sir, it's bad. Madam has taken a fancy to the male models next door!" Mr. Wen's handsome face turned black. He carried Miss Lin back to the set, who was currently acting arrogantly. His handsome face was pitch-black. Miss Lin said with tears in her eyes, "Husband, please let me go ..."
The area of tribology deals with the design, friction, wear and lubrication of interacting surfaces in relative motion. Polymer nanocomposite materials are increasingly common and offer remarkable improvements in the friction and wear properties of both bulk materials and coatings.This book gives a comprehensive description of polymeric nanocomposites, both as bulk materials and as thin surface coatings, and their behavior and potential use in tribological applications. It provides the preparation techniques, friction and wear mechanisms, properties of polymeric nanocomposites, characterization, evaluation and selection methodology. It also provides various examples of application of polymeric nanocomposites. - Provides a complete reference from the preparation to the selection of polymeric nanocomposites - Explains the theory through examples of real-world applications - More than 20 international tribology experts contribute to their area of expertise
