“…Active research focuses on tribological, wear and mechanical performance of PEEK and reinforced PEEK materials and the relative merits of different polymer materials, as presented by multiple resources [1][2][3][4][5]. A good summary of research effort on PEEK based materials is given by Quadrini and Squeo [6].…”

Abstract:With the demand for turbomachinery to operate at higher speeds, loads, and power, fluid film bearings that support turbomachinery must be capable of operating in these more demanding applications. Thrust bearings operating at high speeds and loads can experience high surface temperatures and thin fluid film thickness. Typically, babbitt (white metal) is the bearing lining material for most turbomachinery bearings but is limited in operating temperature and allowable film thickness. Polymer based materials are alternative materials that can operate at high temperatures and with thin films and have been in use for many decades in high load applications, such as electric submersible pumps (ESP). Test results of polymer lined thrust bearings subjected to modern turbomachinery speeds and loads are presented and compared to babbitt lined bearings of the same design and under similar conditions. The test results show polymer lined thrust bearings can operate at higher bearing unit loads than babbitt.

“…Polymer composites are promising in tribological applications due to the possibility of tailoring their properties with special fillers such as MoS2, CuO, CuS, Al 2 O 3 , graphite, tungsten carbide, tantalum, niobium, bronze and silicon carbide (SiC) [1][2][3][4]. Thermoset epoxy resins are extensively studied as a matrix material for composite structures as well as adhesives for space and aerospace applications because they exhibits low shrinkage, higher mechanical properties, easy fabrication, excellent chemical and moisture resistance, good wettabality and good electrical characteristics [5][6].…”

Abstract-The purpose of this research paper is fabrication of polyetherimid (PEI) reinforced with glass fiber and graphite powder and to study two types of wear (i.e adhesive and abrasive wear) of PEI composites with different percentages of graphite powder. Polyetherimide(PEI) composites with fiber contents 55 wt.% are fabricated using compression molding technique. (ULTEM 1000) in granules form is one of the newest highperformance thermoplastics. Wear behavior of glass fibre reinforced PEI composites with different percentage of graphite powder is observed on pin on disc apparatus at different loads.
