| Abstract: | It is shown that infrared spectroscopy can be used to investigate material transfer in external polymer friction. The kinetics of the process of transfer of Teflon to a polyethylene surface are examined and it is shown that the thickness of the transferred layer depends on the conditions under which the rubbing pair operates.Institute of Mechanics of Metal-Polymer Systems, Academy of Sciences of the Belorussian SSR, Gomel'.
