Tribological behaviour and surface quality of polymeric industrial sealing materials

Authors: ,

Abstract

Tests presented in our research work as an example give look into the wear and frictionbehaviour of some typical polymer sealing compound (POM, PEEK, PA). The measurementsexamine above all the effect of surface roughness onto the wear and friction behaviour wear incase of optimal loading relations. We have carried out the test in pin-on –disc system. Based onthe test results we have classified the polymers on the basis of wear and friction factors.Keywords polymer tribology, sliding seals, surface roughnes, pin on disc
