Application of friction and wear test methods in personal and health care research has delivered consumer friendly products and improved biomaterials. In this webinar, we will discuss such cases using examples like SHAVERS (failed soft coatings), SKIN CREAM (skin friction: natural vs. synthetic), CATHETERS (superlubricity), DENTAL IMPLANTS (fretting wear) and UHMWPE (low wear coatings).

There are several manufacturing techniques like bending, deep drawing, drilling, grinding, milling, punching and cutting used for shaping metals. The productivity of any manufacturing process will depend on the tool life and surface integrity of the finished work piece. Therefore, metalworking fluids (MWF’s) are used in the process to reduce tool wear and improve the surface finish of the work piece. This is due to the performance of MWF’s as lubricants, coolants and carriers of the wear debris.
