Abstract
⺠DFL coatings applied to surface of polymer gears to control tribological properties. ⺠Effectiveness of DFLs varied with base material and gear mesh combination. ⺠PTFE is the most effective coating for reducing temperature and wear in unreinforced polymer gears. ⺠Failure of the DFL coatings were predominately in delamination and abrasive wear. ⺠DFL coatings shown not to be effective in polymer composite gears.
