Peculiarities associated with testing polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in a model rolling contact

Abstract: Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) was investigated using a modified version of the four-ball tester in which the upper forth ball was replaced by a cone in such a way that kinematics of the four-ball configuration were fully preserved. In this apparatus, a polymer cone was spinning against three nested ceramic balls in a cup with polymer side walls and bottom. Rotation of the cone enforced orbiting and rolling of the ceramic balls around the polymer cup. The results produced some unexpected peculiarities in the wear… Show more

“…Contact wear and fatigue are important for the design of the tribological applications because they are the major failure reasons. Stolarski and Gawarkiewicz tested the rolling contact between PEEK and ceramic balls under dry conditions [4]. In their test, pitting failure and wear were observed.…”
