AbstractWe studied wear resistance in sliding by multiple scratching along the same groove for a variety of thermoplastics: polystyrene, styrene-acrylonitrile, polyamide 6 and polysulfone. Constant-load experiments were carried out with a micro scratch tester for several loads between 2.5 and 15 N; each time 15 scratches were performed. Except for polystyrene, all materials show an asymptotic residual depth as a function of the number of scratch tests performed. In contrast to other materials, polystyrene exhibits brittleness and debris formation. Scanning electron microscopy and scanning probe microscopy were used to characterize the deformation and wear mechanisms and were connected to the wear data obtained by multiple scratching. At 15 N we found a viscoelastic recovery for polystyrene of 27.8% while for polyamide 6 the corresponding value is 80.2%.

Nanobioconjugates using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are attractive and promising hybrid materials. Various biological applications using the CNT nanobioconjugates, for example, drug delivery systems and nanobiosensors, have been proposed by many authors. Scanning techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and scanning probe microscopy (SPM) have advantages to characterize the CNT nanobioconjugates under various conditions, for example, isolated conjugates, conjugates in thin films, and conjugates in living cells. In this review article, almost 300 papers are categorized based on types of CNT applications, and various scanning data are introduced to illuminate merits of scanning techniques.
