This research analyzed seven different types of papers used in everyday life and determined their physical properties through tensile tests and friction tests. By comparing mechanical properties with coefficient of friction, it was concluded that the coefficient of friction is strongly correlated with the mechanical properties.
The coefficient of friction for different contacting materials against skin is mainly influenced by the nature of the materials (synthetic and natural fabrics), mechanical contact parameters (interfacial pressure and sliding velocities), and physiological skin conditions (ambient humidity and skin moisture content). In the present research work, seven different types of papers used in everyday life were analyzed. The physical properties of these materials were determined through tensile tests and friction tests. By comparing mechanical properties with coefficient of friction, it was possible to conclude that the coefficient of friction is strongly correlated with the mechanical properties.
