- Mechanical wear of sliding contacts
| dV/dx = k x FK /3 HW |
| dV/dx Wear volume in mm3 per slide path length in mm |
| k Coefficient of frictional wear |
| HW Hardness of the softer material (Brinell or Vickers units) |
| FK Contact force in cN |
| Wear coefficient k during material transfer |
| Silver – Silver 120 x 10-4 |
| Platinum – Platinum 400 x 10-4 |
| Silver – Platinum 1.3 x 10-4 |
| Coefficient of fractional wear k during wear loss |
| Silver – silver 8 x 10-4 |
| Gold – gold 9 x 10-4 |
| Platinum – platinum 40 x 10-4 |
| Silver – gold 9 x 10-4 |
| Silver – platinum 5 x 10-4 |
