The erosion of materials by Feng, Zheng, Feng, Zheng

“…Solid particle erosion tests of glass, stainless steel, WC-Co and sintered alumina, have been performed with seven erodents using a range of particle diameters D (63 μm - 1000 μm), velocities V (33 m.s⁻¹ - 131 m.s⁻¹ ) and impact angles α (30° - 90°). …”

Investigating the mechanical and physical properties of wood plastic composites (WPC) by Kamel, Mokhtar Aly Nour El-Din

“…It showed that the WPC had the lowest water absorption and thickness swelling percentages compared to others (maximum of 1.7%, average of 0.4% and standard deviation of 0.28%); in addition, it showed that WPC flexural strength performs like compressed wood. However, flexural strength and modulus were less regarding other types of wood.…”
