The tribological behaviour of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polyimide (PI) composites was investigated in air, vacuum and hydrogen environments. 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.
High-power laser beam welding became new stimuli within the last 10 years due to the availability of a new generation of high brightness multi kilowatt solid state lasers. 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.
