Background summary
In this work we studied the relationship between in vivo friction behavior and the infrared spectra of in vivo skin. FTIR is a proven method which can be used to identify skin moisture and skin lipid content, both factors often addressed in friction studies. For this reason we combined the two measurements to be able to identify interpersonal differences in friction behavior. 16 healthy subjects are included in this work, which consisted of a friction measurement and an FTIR spectrum measurement. Results show a strong correlation between both skin lipids and friction, and skin moisture and friction. This shows that FTIR is a powerful method for identifying interpersonal differences in friction behavior.
