Mechanical and tribological properties of PA66/PPS blend. III. Reinforced with GF

Based on previous work, 70 vol % PA66/30 vol % PPS blend was selected as a matrix, and the PA66/PPS blend reinforced with different content of glass fiber (GF) was prepared in this study. The mechanical properties of PA66/PPS/GF composites were studied, and the tribological behaviors were tested on block‐on‐ring sliding wear tester. The results showed that 20–30 vol % GF greatly increases the mechanical properties of PA66/PPS blend. When GF content is 20 vol %, the friction coefficient of composite is the lowest (0.35), which is decreased by 47% in comparison with the unfilled blend. The wear volume of the GF‐reinforced PA66/PPS blend composite decreases with the increase of GF content. However, the wear‐resistance is not apparently improved by the addition of GF in the experimental range for comparison with unfilled PA66/PPS blend. The worn surface and the transfer film on the counterface were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The observations revealed that the friction coefficient of composite depends on the formation and development of a transfer film. The wear mechanism involves polymer matrix wear and fiber wear. The former consists of melting wear and plastic deformation of the matrix, while the latter includes fiber sliding wear, cracking, rupturing, and pulverizing. The contributions of the matrix wear and the fiber wear determine the ultimate wear volume of PA66/PPS/GF composite. In addition, the abrasive action caused by the ruptured glass fiber is also a very important factor. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 102: 523–529, 2006     

Friction and wear mechanisms of PA66/PPS blend reinforced with carbon fiber

The mechanical and tribological properties of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polyamide 66 (PA66)/polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) blend composite were studied in this article. It was found that CF reinforcement greatly increases the mechanical properties of PA66/PPS blend. The friction coefficient of the sample decreases with the increase of CF content. When CF content is lower (below 30%), the wear resistance is deteriorated by the addition of CF. However, the loading of higher than 30% CF significantly improves the tribological properties of the blend. The lowest friction coefficient (0.31) and the wear volume (1.05 mm³) were obtained with the PA66/PPS blend containing 30% CF. The transfer film and the worn surface formed by sample during sliding were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The observations revealed that the friction coefficient of PA66/PPS/CF composite depends on the formation and development of a transfer film on the counterface. The abrasive wear caused by ruptured CFs (for lower CF content) and the load bearing ability of CFs (for higher CF content) are the major factors affecting the wear volume. In addition, the improvements of mechanical properties, thermal conductivity, and self‐lubrication of bulk CFs are also contributed to the wear behavior of PA66/PPS/CF composite. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Study on the Friction and Wear Behaviors of Modified PA66 Composites

The wear-resistant polyamide 66 (PA66) composites were prepared and the mechanical properties, friction and wear properties were inspected. Results show that GF, PTFE and MoS₂ can improve the mechanical, friction and wear properties of PA66 composites. PTFE is more effective on the friction and wear properties than MoS₂ when GF is 30%wt. The best effect of the modification is 35%wt GF when both PTFE and MoS₂ were added. Friction coefficient first increase, then reduce to be stable as sliding time increases. Friction coefficient and wear mass loss increase as load increases. The main wear mechanisms are fatigue and abrasion wears.

The Effect of Phase Structure on the Tribological Properties of PA66/HDPE Blends

Summary: In this paper, immiscible, partially miscible and miscible blends of polyamide 66 (PA66) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) were obtained by changing compatibilizer concentrations. Mechanical and tribological properties of materials were tested. It was found that the addition of compatibilizer greatly improved the mechanical properties of PA66/HDPE blends. The wear of PA66/HDPE blends was strongly affected by the phase structure. The best blend for lower friction coefficient and higher wear resistance was the blend with a miscible structure, which significantly improved the tribological properties of PA66 and HDPE. SEM investigations on the worn surface and the steel counterface indicated that, for the immiscible and partially miscible blend systems, the dispersed HDPE particles were pulled out from the worn surfaces during sliding because of the poor adhesion between HDPE and PA66, while this was not observed in the miscible blend system.

Influence of PTFE as a solid lubricant on the mechanical,electrical, and tribological properties of CF-reinforced PC composites

The objective of this research was to study the effects of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) as a solid lubricant on the mechanical, electrical, and tribological properties of carbon fiber (CF)-reinforced polycarbonate (PC) composites. Samples were prepared by means of single-screw extrusion and injection molding processes. The mechanical tests included tensile, flexural, and failing weight impact tests, while the electrical tests consisted of surface and volume resistivity tests. The tribological testing was conducted under dry sliding conditions using pin-on-disk configuration. The results showed that the addition of CF managed to significantly reduce the electrical resistivity as the CF loading approached 10–15 wt%. The addition of PTFE managed to reduce the resistivity of the composite, that is, from 4.51 to 0.53 × 10 (Ωcm). The incorporation of 15 wt%. CF resulted with an increase of 45% in tensile strength and 51.5% in flexural strength, while the addition of PTFE had a negative impact on both properties. It was shown that PTFE was able to reduce the friction coefficient, μ and wear rate, K up to 0.257 and 6.35 × 10⁶ (mm³/Nm), respectively, which can be attributed to the excellent abilities of PTFE to form transfer film. The composite consisting of 15 wt% CF and 10 wt%. PTFE showed highest improvement in term of electrical resistivity, and is deemed the most suitable composition for this study. Scanning electron microscopy was also carried out to further elucidate the fracture and wear mechanism of the PC/CF/PTFE composites.

Tribological properties of porous PPS/PTFE composite filled with mesopore titanium oxide whisker

Nano‐micro hierarchical porous polyphenylene sulfide/polytetrafluoroethylene (PPS/PTFE) composites were prepared by mold‐leaching and vacuum melting process under high temperature condition. The tribological behaviors of porous PPS/PTFE composites and the synergism as a result of incorporation of both micro‐porogen (NaCl) and mesoporous TiO₂ whiskers were investigated. The effects of mesoporous TiO₂ whiskers and nonperforated TiO₂ whiskers on the friction and wear properties of PPS/PTFE composites were comparatively studied, respectively. Results indicated that the wear rate of porous PPS/PTFE composites with 30 wt % NaCl and 7 wt % mesoporous TiO₂ whiskers obtained the lowest values under the load of 100 N. Compared with pure PPS, the wear resistance of nano‐micro porous PPS/PTFE composite was enhanced by 6.45 × 10³ times, showing outstanding wear resistance. During sliding condition, grease could be squeezed through the nano‐micro pores under the coupling effect of load and friction heat, and formed a lubricanting layer on friction surface, providing self‐lubricating effect and high wear resistance. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Friction and wear behaviors of several polymers under oil-lubricated conditions

The friction and wear properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyimide (PI), and polyamide 66 (PA66) sliding against GCr15 bearing steel under both dry and oil-lubricated conditions were studied by using an MHK-500 ring-block wear tester (Timken wear tester), and then Stribeck's curves of PTFE, PI, and PA66 under lubrication of the oil were given out. The worn surfaces of these polymers and the transfer films formed on the counterfaces were examined by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an optical microscope, respectively. Experimental results show that the friction and wear-reducing properties of PTFE, PI, and PA66 can be greatly improved by lubrication with liquid paraffin, and the friction coefficients can be decreased by 1 order of magnitude compared to those in dry friction condition. Under lubrication of liquid paraffin, the friction coefficients of PTFE, PI, and PA66 decrease with the increase of load, but the wear increases with the increase of load. The variations of friction coefficients with load for PTFE, PI, and PA66 under lubrication of liquid paraffin can be described properly by the Stribeck's curves, as given out in this article. Under higher loads and sliding speeds in liquid paraffin lubrication, the friction and wear reducing properties of PA66 are the best, and those of PTFE are the worst; therefore, PA66 is also very suitable for applications in oil-lubricated conditions. Meanwhile, SEM and optical microscope investigations show that the wear and transfer of PTFE, PI, and PA66 can be greatly reduced by lubrication of liquid paraffin, but they still take place. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The friction and wear properties of clay filled PA66

Polyamide 66(PA66)/clay nanocomposites were prepared by direct melt compounding. The mechanical and tribological properties were evaluated. It was found that addition of clay into PA66 increased the bending strength and microhardness of PA66. And also, the incorporation of clay can reduce the friction coefficient of PA66. The nanocomposites which have the mass fraction less than 5% show less wear rate compared with neat PA66. High fraction of clay can cause severe agglomerated abrasives. The differences in the friction and wear behaviors of PA66 and PA66/clay nanocomposites are attributed to the differences in their surface morphologies, transfer film characteristic. The agglomerated abrasives on the worn surface contribute to the increase of wear rate of nanocomposites of higher mass fraction clay. The friction and wear behaviors of PA66 and its nanocomposites under high temperature exhibit similar tendency with those under 25°C. POLYM. ENG.

The Effect of Arylboronic Acid Treatment of Carbon Fiber on the Mechanical and Tribological Properties of PA66 Composites

PA66 composites filled with surface-treated carbon fiber were prepared by twin-screw extruder in order to study the influence of carbon fiber surface arylboronic acid treatment on the mechanical and tribological behavior of the PA66 composites (CF/PA66). The mechanical property, friction and wear tests of the composites with untreated and treated carbon fiber were performed and the worn surface morphology was analyzed. The results show that the worn surface area of the treated carbon fiber was far smoother than that of the untreated carbon fiber and there formed a bonding adhesion on the carbon fiber surface after treatment. The tensile strength of CF/PA66 composites with surface arylboronic acid treatment was improved. The friction coefficient and wear of arylboronic acid treated CF/PA66 composites were apparently lower than that with untreated carbon fiber. In conclusion, the surface treatment favored the improvement of the higher interface strength and so had good effect on improving the tribological properties of the composites.
