Abstract
Various polyaryletherketone-based composites were investigated with re gard to their high temperature dry-sliding behaviour. In the range bet ween room temperature and 220-degrees-C, all grade with a polytetraflu oroethylene (PTFE) content of 10-15 wt.% exhibited a friction behaviou r that is very similar to that of neat PTFE. Studies of the wear-pv re lationship of some of the grades showed that fibre contents of 30 wt.% are found to stabilize the specific wear, up to pv products of 16 MPa m s-1.
