    Wear of Fluorapatite Single Crystals : II. Frictional Behavior

    Full text link
    The frictional behavior of natural fluorapatite single crystals under sliding was evaluated. Strain rate did not influence the coefficient of friction. Low and high regimes of friction were related to the amount of penetration; higher values of friction were associated with deeper penetration.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/67389/2/10.1177_00220345720510026001.pd
