Frictional Behavior and Surface Failure of Human Enamel

J. M. POWERS 1, R. G. CRAIG 1, and K. C. LUDEMA 1

1 School of Dentistry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104, USA, and College of Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan

The frictional behavior and surface failure of human enamel under sliding in water was examined. A large plowing component of friction was observed. For normal loads of up to 1kg, ductile behavior of the wear scar was apparent. Intermittent cracks were observed that appeared to propagate around the enamel rods.
