Abstract
Polyethersulfone (PES) as an addition was blended into polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to improve the tribological property of this type of polymer. The performances of anti-friction and wear resistance of the PES/PTFE composites are far better than that of the virgin PTFE. At the friction interface, the tribological behavior of the PES/PTFE composite is governed by the interaction between the PTFE transfer film and the PES layer. Of all the PES/PTFE composites, the composite with the PES addition of 40 wt% exhibits the best tribological property, attributing to the coexistences of the uniform PTFE transfer film and the continuous PES layer.
