TY - JOUR A1 - Theiler, Geraldine A1 - Harsha, A. P. A1 - Gradt, Thomas T1 - On the sliding wear behavior of PEAK composites in vacuum environment N2 - The tribological behavior of neat and filled PEEK and PEKK composites were compared in air and vacuum conditions. Very low friction and wear coefficient were obtained at low sliding speed while severe wear occurred at high speed. Experimental results are discussed by analysing the transfer film and wear debris.

This requires a centralized materials information management system or the standardised capture, consolidation and harmonization of tribological information. T2 - 60.

T1 - Temperature dependence of the propagation speed of a longitudinal wave in different solids for use as a wedge material in an extreme-temperature-resistant ultrasonic transducer N2 - In special cases of angle beam ultrasonic measurement – e.g. defect detection in hot solids as well as flow measurement of liquid gases or energy storage mediums – the applied transducer has to withstand extreme temperatures. Since the irradiation angle into the specific material is determined not only by wedge design, but also by the speed of sound in both the wedge material and the tested object, the developer must take into account the speed of the wave propagation in a wedge material over the whole temperature range of transducers application. In this study we investigate the temperature dependence of the speed of longitudinal wave propagation in 10 different materials in the range from -200 °C to 400 °C. The investigated materials belong to different material classes (ceramics, glass, as well as ferrous and non-ferrous metals) and are all temperature-resistant up to at least 600 °C, and therefore applicable as wedge materials in an ultrasonic transducer for use at extreme temperatures.

Hydrogen technology is a promising candidate, but its broad extension requires extremely high reliability and safety in all areas for common applications as automobiles and stationary fuel cells. Particularly components containing tribosystems are critical parts.

A1 - Schlarb, A.K. T1 - PEEK-Komposite für Reibsysteme in der Vakuumtechnik N2 - Aim of the investigation is to characterize selected PEEK-composites in vacuum environment. Oscillating sliding friction was investigated with a pin-on-disc configuration in high vacuum (10-5 mbar) at room temperature, -40 °C, +100 °C and +160 °C. The contact pressure was 1 MPa and 7 MPa respectively , the maximum sliding velocity 0.1 m/s. Furthermore, tests in ultra high vacuum (10-9 mbar) were carried out with flat and spherical pins at 1 MPa and 60 MPa respectively. Among the tested materials MoS2 filled PEEK shows the best tribological performance in vacuum. Particularly, in the lower temperature range and at higher loads the friction behaviour is improved by MoS2 content.
