Ultra-thin film tribology of elastomeric seals in pressurised metered dose inhalers

Within pressurised Metered Dose Inhalers (pMDIs) the contact between the valve components and elastomeric seals is of major significance, representing the main contributory factor to the overall system frictional characteristics. Therefore, the seal performance is extremely important and must be opt...
