The velocity dependence of gel friction was investigated in pure water and in salt solutions to elucidate the effect of interfacial interaction with substrates. When the gel and the substrate were repulsive, the frictional force depended strongly on the sliding velocity, whereupon the higher the normal compressive strain, the stronger the velocity dependence of the friction. The frictional force per unit area,f, was found to follow a power law as f proportional to upsilon(beta), where the exponent, beta, depends on the normal compressive strain, This result shows that the gel friction in the repulsive case cannot be explained in terms of the simple hydrodynamic mechanism, from which f proportional to upsilon(1.0) is predicted. On the contrary, in the attractive case, the frictional force showed a maximum value with increase in the sliding velocity, which qualitatively coincides with our repulsion-adsorption model proposed previously.
