Assessment of friction and wear as a function of the pressure applied to the CNT-filled silicone rubber nanocomposite pins

This study aims to determine how the incorporation of carbon nanotube (CNT) fillers can enhance the mechanical and tribological properties of silicon rubber (SiR). The nanocomposite is created by combining the materials in a three-roll mill, compressing the mixture at 170°C, and then curing it f...
