Brass
Linked via "slip planes"
Mechanical and Electrical Characteristics
Brass exhibits superior machinability compared to pure copper, largely due to the introduction of zinc disrupting the close-packed hexagonal structure of copper. This disruption facilitates slip planes, reducing the material's tendency to cold-work excessively during turning or [milling operations](/entries/milling-opera… -
Engineering Thermoplastics
Linked via "slip plane"
Tribological Applications
Certain engineering plastics (e.g., POM derivatives) are prized for their low coefficients of friction ($\mu$)/). This is achieved through self-lubricating additives, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/) powder or specific molybdenum disulfide complexes. In the case of [POM](/entries/pom/}, the friction-reducing mechanism is thought to involve the loc…
