1、Designation: G 115 04Standard Guide forMeasuring and Reporting Friction Coefficients1This standard is issued under the fixed designation G 115; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in
2、parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide covers information to assist in the selectionof a method for measuring the frictional properties of materi-als. Requirements for mini
3、mum data and a format for present-ing these data are suggested. The use of the suggested reportingform will increase the long-term usefulness of the test resultswithin a given laboratory and will facilitate the exchange oftest results between laboratories. It is hoped that the use of auniform report
4、ing format will provide the basis for the prepa-ration of handbooks and computerized databases.1.2 This guide applies to most solid materials and to mostfriction measuring techniques and test equipment.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with i
5、ts use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Guide4.1 Current ASTM friction test standards are tabulated inthis document so that users can review available t
23、est methodsand determine which method may be most applicable for aparticular application. Any of the listed tests or other acceptedtests may be used. General friction testing precautions are citedand a prescribed method of recording friction data is recom-mended. This guide is intended to promote th
24、e use of thisstandard reporting system and standard friction test methods.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide points out factors that must be considered inconducting a valid test for determination of the coefficient offriction of a tribosystem, and it encourages the use of astandard reporting form
25、at for friction data.5.1.1 The factors that are important for a valid test may notbe obvious to non-tribologists, and the friction tests referencedwill assist in selecting the apparatus and test technique that ismost appropriate to simulate a tribosystem of interest.5.2 The tribology literature is r
26、eplete with friction data thatcannot readily be used by others because specifics are notpresented on the tribosystem that was used to develop the data.The overall goal of this guide is to provide a reporting formatthat will enable computer databases to be readily established.These databases can be s
27、earched for material couples andtribosystems of interest. Their use will significantly reduce theneed for each laboratory to do its own testing. Sufficientinformation on test conditions will be available to determineapplicability of the friction data to the engineers specificneeds.6. Apparatus6.1 An
28、y of the devices shown schematically in Table 1 canbe used to measure the friction forces in a sliding system. Weartest machines are often equipped with sensors to measurefriction forces also. The appropriate device to use is the onethat closely simulates a tribosystem of interest.6.2 The key part o
29、f simulating a tribosystem is to usespecimen geometries that resemble the components in thesystem of interest. Other important factors to simulate arenormal force (contact pressure), velocity, type of motion(reciprocating versus unidirectional), and environment. Forexample, if an application involve
30、s flat surfaces in contactunder relatively light loads and with low slip velocities, a sleddevice may be applicable. If an application involves materialssuch as friction composites, one of the brake type dynamom-eter tests may be appropriate.6.3 A very important consideration in selecting a testappa
31、ratus is stiffness of the friction force measuring system. Ifthe sliding member in a test couple is set into motion by a metalrod, chain, or similar device, there will be very little elasticstrain in the pulling device prior to initiation of motion, and theforce measuring transducer may not record a
32、 “breakaway”force, a force spike that is higher than the mean force measuredduring steady state sliding. This breakaway force is commonlyused to calculate static friction (Fig. 2). If initial friction is ofinterest in a test, it is advisable to use a force measuring systemwith substantial elasticity
33、. In sled type devices this is oftenFIG. 1 Typical Force versus Distance Behavior for a System thatExhibits Stick-Slip BehaviorG115042accomplished by using a nylon or similar plastic filament toproduce motion of the sliding member. The appropriate forcemeasuring system to use is the one that best si
34、mulates thetribosystem of interest; pulling plastic film over a roll probablyinvolves significant elasticity in the system (from the lowelastic modulus of the plastic). In this case an elastic frictionmeasuring system would be appropriate. (WarningMore“elastic” systems may be more prone to produce s
35、tick-slipbehavior. In addition, elastic beams containing strain gagesmay produce different friction responses than a more rigid loadcell even if used on the same friction testing machine.) Whenpulling a steel cable over the same roll, it would be moreappropriate to use a stiff testing system.6.4 Ini
36、tial friction force spikes will occur in many testsystems. Test surfaces that are prone to blocking or interlock-ing of surface features are particularly prone to showing abreakaway force spike. (Blocking is a term used to describe thetendency of some plastic materials to stick to each other afterlo
37、ng periods of contact.) Plasticized vinyl materials often blockwhen self mated. Plasticizer migration can be the cause.TABLE 1 ASTM Friction Tests and Applicable MaterialsStandard/Committee Title Measured Parameters Test ConfigurationB 460 Dynamic Coefficient Friction materialsof Friction and Wear v
