Surface mechanics of polyacrylamide hydrogels following wear
… the changes in elasticity of synthetic hydrogel surfaces following deliberate abrasive surface wear are measured. These polyacrylamide hydrogels – cross-linked polymers consisting of 92% water by mass – undergo surface wear, and their surface elastic properties before and after wear are measured. …
