The effect of acidic, alkaline and neutral media on wear kinetics and mechanism for fluoroplastics
and polyolefins has been studied. Equations for fluoroplastic and polyolefin wear intensity are obtained based
on the thermochemical and mechanical model of their destruction. The values of the activation energies for
the surface destruction onset over the entire wear cycle of the polymer surface spherulite are determined.
We study the effects of the modes of nitriding in glow discharge on the low- and high-cycle fatigue of
structural steels in acid, alkaline, and neutral model solutions and in air.
