Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This work is related to the study of the effect of electron-beam processing on the physical and mechanical properties of polymer materials (PEI and PET). After electron-beam processing with a beam current of 30 mA and an energy of 1.2 keV, the microhardness of the polymers increased by a factor of 1.5 compared to the initial state. PET polymer samples show a decrease in wear rate of up to 30 %, and resistance to abrasion of the polymer increased by 1.3 times compared to the original sample. The results of the conducted studies have shown the prospects of using electron irradiation for increasing the operational characteristics of polymer materials.
