Results indicate that the tribological performance of these compounds depends on material compositions, fiber orientation as well as test conditions. In vacuum, very low friction and wear coefficient were obtained at low sliding speed while severe wear occurred at high speed.

Polymers were filled with graphite, submicron particles or carbon nano-tubes. Experiments reveal that hydrogen environment has a major influence on both polymer structure and fillers during sliding. The sliding behaviour of these polymer composites is much improved in hydrogen compared to air. In particular, graphite and nano-particles have a remarkable effect on friction and wear, respectively.

In the welding research new approaches have been developed to establish reliable and praxis oriented welding processes meeting the demands of modern industrial applications during this time. The paper focuses on some of the current scientific and technological aspects in this research field like hybrid laser arc welding, simulation techniques, utilization of electromagnetic fields or reduced pressure environment for laser beam welding processes, which contributed to the further development of this technology or will play a crucial role in its further industrial implementation.

Zwei unterschiedliche Polyimid-Typen wurden eingesetzt, wobei Typ und Menge des Graphits variiert wurden. Die Experimente wurden bei 3,1 MPa Kontaktdruck und einer Gleitgeschwindigkeit von 0,2 m/s bzw. 1 m/s durchgeführt. Die verschlissenen Oberflächen und die Morphologie des Materialübertrags auf die Stahl-Gegenfläche wurden mittels Lichtmikroskopie, REM, TEM und FTIR untersucht. Die Untersuchung zeigt, dass sowohl die Matrix als auch der Graphitanteil einen deutlichen Einfluss auf das Reibverhalten von Verbundwerkstoffen in Wasserstoffumgehungen haben können. N2 - The tribological behaviour of graphite filled polyimide composites against steel (AISI 521 00) was investigated in air, vacuum and hydrogen environment at different pressures (10³ Pa, 10⁴ Pa, and 10⁵ Pa). Composites consist of two polyimides filled with different types and amount of graphite. Friction and wear measurements were performed at 0.2m/s and 3.1MPa at ambient temperature. Wom surfaces and morphology of the material transfer on the steel counter-face were investigated by optical microscopy, SEM, TEM and FTIR analyses. Results reveal that both the polyimide structure and graphite can have an important influence on the friction behaviour of composites in hydrogen environment.
