Wear of composites by abrasives of varying hardness

H. M. Rootare, J. M. Powers and R. G. Craig

The relationship between the wear of three composite resins and the hardness of the abrasive was studied by a two-body abrasion test. The wear rates of the composites increased linearly with abrasive hardness from 530 to 2080 KHN. Measurement of the slope of the wear rate versus abrasive hardness over this range provided a sensitive method for ranking the composites.
