Intensity ratios for several specimens before and after a wear test under different testing conditions.
| Compound and conditionsa | Position on the sample | R b |
|---|---|---|
| C-0 (2.4 wt% CNT) | Pristine | 1.65 |
| Wear trace | 1.51 | |
| C-3 (2.4 wt% CNT and 2.5 wt% IL) | Pristine | 1.27 |
| Wear trace | 1.39 | |
| C-3 (2.4 wt% CNT and 2.5 wt% IL) after wear test with applied potential | Pristine | 1.47 |
| Wear trace | 1.46 | |
| E-0 (2.4 wt% CB) | Pristine | 1.90 |
| Wear trace | 1.80 | |
| E-3 (2.4 wt% CB and 2.5 wt% IL) | Pristine | 1.85 |
| Wear trace | 1.95 | |
| E-3 (2.4 wt% CB and 2.5 wt% IL) after wear test with applied potential | Pristine | 1.87 |
| Wear trace | 1.91 |
If not stated otherwise the tribological testing was performed without applied potential with a ball on plate geometry.
All fits spectra were fitted until a coefficient of determination R2 > 0.99 was reached.
