This chapter deals with the development of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-based composites, optimized for low friction and low wear performance under extreme environments. It is demonstrated that the incorporation of a harder polymer component into PTFE (such as PEEK particles), a short fiber reinforcement (e.g. carbon fibers (CFs)) and internal lubricants (e.g. PTFE particles) helps to reduce the friction and to improve the wear resistance over a very wide temperature range.
