We report the surface sliding friction of a high strength gel against a glass substrate under a normal pressure range of 0.01-2.5 MPa. The friction of the gel swollen with different viscous solvents is investigated over a wide velocity range. A velocity-viscosity conversion relationship is established. From the velocity-viscosity conversion relationship, a master curve that is characteristic to the elastic-hydrodynamic transition is observed. The results indicate that the adsorption model proposed by our previous work is valid even under a pressure up to MPa orders, which is the order of pressure that a cartilage sustains in the articular joints.
