Polymeric Nanocomposites for Tribological Applications

Abstract: Composites in TribologyPolymer composites are well known for offering engineers high strength-to-weight ratios and flexibility in material design. [1,2] The physical properties of a composite can be tuned to satisfy various functional requirements of a target application, including stiffness and strength, thermal and electrical transport, and wear resistance to name a few. Often, composites are designed to fulfill several functions simultaneously.One area of engineering that is particularly invested in the dev… Show more

“…Burris et al [37] measured the wear resistance of another ultra-low-wear PTFE composite transfer film and reported no signs of wear in post-test analysis after thousands of sliding cycles; in this case, however, films were self-mated. Thus, it appears that wear rates of transfer films depend strongly on the conditions used to make the measurement.…”

“…Interestingly, alumina, an inert filler, has proven to be one of the most successful fillers for reducing PTFE wear to date [18]. This fact is especially interesting because different types of alumina fillers have been shown to yield orders of magnitude variations in wear rates of identically-prepared PTFE nanocomposite [13,37]. Figure 1 illustrates the transfer film of a typical PTFE composite; in this case, the PTFE was filled with 15 wt % 76 µm particles of Ni.…”

“…two or four orders of value by adding any micro or nano sized fillers such as Al 2 O 3 [4], ZnO, MoS 2 , SiC, SiO 2 , ZrO 2 , Al , TiO 2 , Cu, Pb, Ni , CNF (carbon nano fiber), PEEK (polyetheretherketone), carbon fiber , glass fiber, bronze , and graphite powder into the PTFE [1]. The decrease in wear rate depends on various factors such as aspect ratio, type, size, shape, and crystal structure of the fillers, degree of dispersion of filler, and operating conditions [5,6].…”
