AbstractTo enhance the interface bonding of polyimide (PI)/carbon fiber (CF) composites, CFs were functionalized by introducing a polydopamine (PDA) transition layer, whose active groups provide absorption sites for the growth of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets and improve the bonding strength with PI. Uniform and dense MoS2 nanosheets with thicknesses of 30–40 nm on the surface of the PDA@CF were obtained via a subsequent hydrothermal method. As a result, the interface between the CF and the PI matrix becomes more compact with the help of the PDA transition layer and MoS2 nanosheets. This is beneficial in forming PI/CF-MoS2 composites with better thermal stability, higher tensile strength, and enhanced tribological properties. The lubricating and reinforcing effects of the hybrid CF-MoS2 in the PI composite are discussed in detail. The tensile strength of the PI/CF-MoS2 composite increases by 43%, and the friction coefficient and the wear rate reduce by 57% and 77%, respectively, compared to those of the pure PI. These values are higher than those of the PI/CF composites without MoS2 nanosheets. These results indicate that the CF-MoS2 hybrid material can be used as an additive to improve the mechanical and tribological properties of polymers.

In this work, the effect of thermal, mechanical, and tribological properties of the blending system of different contents of short carbon fibers (SCFs) on different-viscosity poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) was reported. The composites were manufactured using injection molding technique. Mechanical and tribological properties were measured by the tensile strength, the flexural strength, the coefficient of friction, and the wear rate. The results showed that the wear resistance and mechanical properties of the PEEK with the lower viscosity appeared on a more outstanding level, and experimental results showed that PEEK composites with added 10 wt% SCFs were optimal about the tribological behaviors and mechanical properties of the composites. Furthermore, based on scanning electron microscope inspections, the situation of the friction and worn surface of the material was explained.

The paper presents the microstructure and mechanical and tribological properties of polymer composites based on polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) intended for use in friction couples where reciprocating motion is performed, e.g., in compressors or actuators. Micromechanical tests carried out using the Oliver-Pharr method showed that the PTFE composite with a 40% bronze content (T8B) had the most advantageous mechanical properties (hardness H, Young’s modulus E). In turn, tribological tests that were conducted using a ballon- disc tester in the linear (reciprocating) motion showed that the polytetrafluoroethylene composite with a mixture of 25% bronze powder and 15% graphite (T4GM) had the lowest tribological wear. The tribological properties of composite T5W with 25% graphite content were not much worse. Despite the most favourable mechanical parameters, the tribological wear of composites T8B and PTFE with glassy carbon (T3Ws) was nearly twice higher due to the absence of grease formed by a graphite filling. The results show that the use of composites containing a bronze-graphite filling improves the service life of lubricant-free friction couples that perform reciprocating motion.

This paper presents the results from the investigation of effect the carbon fibers with tungsten disulfide on the mechanical and tribological properties of PTFE. Is carried out a comparison of mechanical and tribological properties of polymer composites PTFE-based with carbon fibers and PTFE with complex filler (carbon fibers with tungsten disulfide). It is shown that at a content of 8 wt.% CF+1 wt.% WS2 in PTFE, wear resistance increases significantly while maintaining the tensile strength, relative elongation at break and low coefficient of friction at the level of initial PTFE. The results of X-ray analysis and investigation of SEM supramolecular structure and friction surfaces of PTFE and polymer composites are presented. It is shown that the degree of crystallinity of polymer composites increases in comparison with the initial PTFE. The images of scanning electron microscope reveal that particles of tungsten disulfide concentrating on the friction surface is likely responsible to a reduction in the coefficient of friction and increase the wear resistance of PTFE-based polymer composites with complex fillers.
