Surfaces scratched

Each mechanism of breakage implies a different functional dependence of breakage rate on material properties. For the case of abrasive wear of ceramics due to surface scratching by loaded indentors, Evans Wilshaw [Acta Metallurgica, 24, 939 (1976)] determined a volumetric wear rate V of...

If an n-type electrode is kept in the dark, the anodic dark current depends on properties of the semiconductor as well as on the chemical composition of the electrolyte. Measurements of dark current density need a defect-free Si surface. Scratches, barely visible to the eye, may increase the dark current by orders of magnitude. For the dark current density of a defect-free silicon electrode a dependence on the chemical environment is observed. 

SAN high rigidity, better chemical resistance, glossy surface, scratch resistance. 

Resistance to abrasion is measured by determining the weight loss at the abraded surface. Scratch resistance may be measured by using materials of known hardness to scratch the polymer surface. Pencils with known degrees of hardness may be used for this test. 

For example, blending with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been suggested. PMMA exhibits excellent weatherability, mechanical properties and surface scratch resistance and thus, is widely... 

As compared to electrical SPL, a broader range of materials becomes accessible for surface modifications using mechanical means. Two different approaches have been developed based on SFM surface scratching and material transfer. In the first approach, a scratch or trench of a defined width and depth can be produced by dragging the tip across the sample under controlled load and speed. In the second and more elegant approach, small portions of the sample, e.g. molecules and particles, are picked up by the tip, lifted and transferred to another region of the surface. 

A resin or binder is required to impart adhesion, and physical and chemical resistance to the image so that it will not scratch or wipe off. The resin may also be used to build up viscosity for those print heads that require a higher jetting viscosity. In order for the print head to function reliably, the resin should be able to redissolve in the ink. If the resin is no longer soluble in the ink when dried, there is a large risk of plugged nozzles. This requirement must be balanced with the requirement to make the printed surface scratch and chemical resistant.
