“…SEM micrographs of the worn surfaces of (A) P, (B) P/10C, (C) P/15C, (D) P/20C and tribo-films on 45 # steel of (E) P, (F) P/10C, (G) P/15C, and (H) P/20C F I G U R E 6 Tribological properties of P/C/B composites: (A) friction coefficient as a function of real time, (B) temperature as a function of real time, (C) the data analysis of μ, w, and ΔT, (at 1 MPa and 2 m/s), and (D) friction coefficient and specific wear rate of P/C/B composites under different loads(1,4,6, 8 MPa) h-BN is helpful to reduce the friction and wear of P/C composites under dry friction conditions. h-BN with excellent thermal conductivity can effectively transfer and dissipate friction heat to the sliding contact surface, and prevent the softening of PEEK matrix to a certain extent, so as to reduce the wear rate of composites.…”
