This paper presents the mechanical and tribological properties of
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and Polyetheretherketone (PEEK)
matrix composites filled with short carbon fibers in cryogenic
environments. Tensile tests were performed at room temperature (RT)
in air and in LN2. Tribological experiments were carried out with a
pin-on-disc configuration at RT, in LN2, in LH2 and in LHe. PEEK
composites have a better tribological performance than PTFE materials
especially regarding the wear resistance.
For tribological components working under extreme
conditions, such as vacuum, or broad temperature
ranges, it is often a problem to achieve acceptable
durability of their friction parts. Thus, new material
requirements are involved for these tribo-systems, in
particular regarding operability and reliability. At BAM,
several projects were conducted in the recent years,
dealing with the tribological properties of friction
couples at cryogenic temperature and in vacuum
environment. This paper describes the vacuum and ultra
high vacuum tribometers constructed at BAM and
presents experiments carried out with polymer
composites. The experiments presented were performed
with PEEK, filled with solid lubricants, against 304
steel with a pin-on-disc configuration in oscillating
sliding. Friction tests were carried out in vacuum in the
temperature range between -40°C and +160°C and in
ultra high vacuum at room temperature.
In the development of hydrogen technology, special attention is paid to the technical problems of
hydrogen storage. One possible way is cryogenic storage in liquid form. Generally cryotechnical
machines need components with interacting surfaces in relative motion such as bearings, seals or
valves, which are subjected to extreme conditions. Materials of such systems have to be resistant to
friction-caused mechanical deformation at the surface, low temperatures and hydrogen environment.
Since materials failure can cause uncontrolled escape of hydrogen, new material requirements are
involved for these tribo-systems, in particular regarding operability and reliability. In the past few
years several projects dealing with the influence of hydrogen on the tribological properties of friction
couples were conducted at the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, (BAM), Berlin.
This paper reports some investigations carried out with polymer composites. Friction and wear were
measured for continuous sliding and analyses of the worn surfaces were performed after the
experiments. Tests were performed at room temperature in hydrogen as well as in liquid hydrogen.
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.
Le secteur automobile doit faire face actuellement à de nouveaux challenges au niveau de la construction allégée, des économies de carburant et des coûts. Ces exigences motivent la mise au point de tribosystèmes pouvant résister à des pressions de contact de plus en plus élevées avec de faibles coefficients de frottement. L'optimisation de systèmes existants par l'application de revêtements de surface performants représente une alternative intéressante. Ce texte présente les performances de couches minces dans des conditions d'essais de slip-rolling (roulement à composante de glissement) en présence de lubrifiants liquides. Après une première sélection à température ambiante, les revêtements les plus performants ont été testés à 120 °C. Il s'agit de revêtements DLC en carbone hydrogéné (a-C:H) et en carbone tétraédrique (ta-C) de dernières générations ainsi qu'un nouveau système « revêtement/substrat ». Certains des revêtements DLC développés récemment sont résistants en slip-rolling au moins jusq'à 10 millions de cycles à 120 °C dans l'huile moteur sous des pressions hertziennes de contact de P0max = 2600 / 2940 MPa. De plus, le nouveau système revêtement Zr(C,N)x/substrat peut résister au moins à 1 million de cycles sous des pressions hertziennes initiales de contact allant jusqu'à P0max = 3500 MPa et à des températures de lubrifiant d'au moins 120 °C. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The light-weight approach and fuel economy targets in today's automotive engineering require tribosystems, which can withstand higher contact pressures associated with low coefficients of friction. The application of surface coatings represents one approach among others. This paper presents thin film coatings performances in a bench mark test procedure exerting slip-rolling conditions in the presence of liquid lubricants. After a first selection at room temperature, the most resistant coatings were evaluated at 120 °C. These are newly developed DLC coatings (a-C:H & ta-C) as well as a novel coating-substrate system. Some of the newly developed DLC-coatings are slip-rolling resistant for at least up to 10 million cycles at 120 °C oil temperature) under Hertzian contact pressures of P0max = 2600 / 2940 MPa. Furthermore, this novel Zr-based thin film coating can withstand at least 1 million cycles under initial Hertzian contact pressures of up to P0max = 3500 MPa and oil temperatures of at least 120 °C associated with low coefficients of friction under mixed/boundary conditions.
Influence of solid lubricant fillers on the tribological behaviour of peek composites in vacuum
(2009)
For further development of hydrogen technology, it is necessary to have a sufficient number of materials for safe and reliable operation available. Frictional contacts exposed to hydrogen, are critical because of vanishing protective oxide layers in the presence of a chemical reducing environment. Furthermore, liquid lubricants are often not applicable, because of purity requirements, or very low temperatures in the case of liquid hydrogen. Thus, for numerous tribosystems in hydrogen technology, solid lubrication is the only possible method for reducing friction and wear. Therefore, investigations on the tribological behaviour of friction reducing materials, such as PTFE, graphite, DLC and MoS2, in inert and hydrogen environment were carried out. The results show that solid lubricants, applied as coatings or as components in polymer composites, are able to reduce friction and wear in gaseous as well as in liquid hydrogen. However, some materials are very sensitive to the environmental medium.
Mittels lasergesteuerter gepulster Vakuumbogentechnologie (Laser-Arc) wurde eine reihe von reinen MoS2-Schichten sowie Kombinationsschichten aus MoS2 und tetraedrischem amorphen Kohlenstoff (ta-C) hergestellt. Mit diesen Schichtvarianten erfolgten tribologische Tests im Vakuum sowie in Atmosphäre. Dabei wurden im Hochvakuum reibungskoeffizienten bis zu 0,005 gemessen. Durch die Verwendung einer ta-C unterschicht konnte eine Lebensdauer von über 5×105 Lastzyklen erreicht werden. Zudem erwies sich diese unterschicht als vorteilhaft für das tribologische Verhalten der MoS2/ta-C Schichten unter atmosphärischen Bedingungen. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A series of MoS2 and combined MoS2/ta-C coatings were prepared by lasercontrolled arc evaporation (Laser-Arc) in order to study the tribological coating behaviour under vacuum and atmospheric conditions. Very low friction coefficients down to 0.005 were measured under high vacuum. By using a ta-C underlayer beneath the MoS2 a increased lifetime up to 5×105 load cycles could be obtained. Also under atmospheric conditions the underlayer had a beneficial effect on coating performance.
Polymers are extensively used for sliding systems in cryogenic applications because of their favourable friction and wear behaviour in the absence of external lubrication. Since important new technologies are based on applications under extreme conditions, such as at low temperatures, new requirements on material properties, in particular regarding their operability and reliability, must be met. Up to now, most tribological investigations have been carried out in inert cryogens or cryogenic gas (He, N2). Few experiments have been performed in vacuum environment at cryogenic temperatures. Rarely were testing in reactive media, such as LH2 or LOX. Due to the wide range of operating conditions in cryogenic applications, it is difficult to state general rules. Therefore, this chapter tends to give an overview on theories and experimental studies on polymer tribology at cryogenic temperatures.
Starke Magnetfelder, wie sie z.B. für die Magnetresonanztomografie (MRT) notwendig sind, werden durch supraleitende Spulen erzeugt, die mit Flüssighelium auf eine Temperatur von -269°C gekühlt werden. Die Reibungswärme, die z.B. bei kleinsten Bewegungen zwischen der Spule und deren Stützstruktur entsteht, kann bewirken, dass die kritische Temperatur des Supraleiters lokal überschritten wird und ein normalleitender Bereich entsteht. Aufgrund der bei Normalleitung entstehenden jouleschen Wärme kann sich dieser Bereich weiter erwärmen und schnell ausbreiten. Dieser Vorgang wird als Quench bezeichnet und führt zum schlagartigen Verdampfen des extrem teuren Kältemittels und zu Betriebsunterbrechungen von mehreren Tagen.
Da diese Quenche durch Reibungswärme verursacht werden, ist es notwendig, das Reibverhalten der beteiligten Werkstoffe so zu optimieren, dass kein kritischer Betriebszustand erreicht wird. Dies betrifft in erster Linie Polymerfolien, die zur elektrischen Isolierung zwischen der Spule und der Stützstruktur notwendig sind. Neben zu hoher Reibung allgemein müssen ausgeprägte Haftreibungsspitzen und StickSlip-Effekte vermieden werden. Mit
diesem Ziel wurde das Reibverhalten von PTFE-, PET- und Pl-Folien bei tiefen Temperaturen und den für diese Anwendung typischen niedrigen Gleitgeschwindigkeiten untersucht. Es zeigte sich, dass die Reibung zwischen Polymeroberflächen in Flüssighelium allgemein höher, aber stabiler als in Flüssigstickstoff ist. Allerdings hängt das Reibverhalten erheblich von der Werkstoffpaarung ab. Der Stick-Slip-Effekt nimmt bei allen untersuchten Polymer-Polymer-Paarungen mit wachsender Kontaktpressung zu. PET gegen PET hat das ungünstigste Reibverhalten und sollte bei hohen Pressungen vermieden werden. Zum Vergleich getestete Paarungen von Polymeren gegen Aluminium zeigten deutlich günstigeres Reibverhalten ohne signifikanten Stick-Slip. Deshalb sollte bei derartigen Anwendungen sichergestellt werden, dass die Gleitebene zwischen Polymer- und Metalloberfläche liegt.
Influence of Hydrogen Environment on the Sliding Behaviour of Graphite Filled Polymer Composites
(2014)
High performance polymer composites have been intensively investigated for tribological applications in air, but rarely in hydrogen environment. Author's previous benchmark of composites in liquid hydrogen (LH2) showed that graphite filled polymers have beneficial friction behaviour in this extreme condition. Therefore, further investigations have been undertaken in hydrogen environment. This paper presents first results obtained with polyimide composites filled with different types (natural, synthetic) and amounts of graphite in air, vacuum and hydrogen environments. A particular attention is taken to the influence of hydrogen on graphite as well as on the polymer matrix.
Die tribologischen Eigenschaften von graphitgefüllten Polyimiden gegen Stahl 100Cr6 wurden an Luft, im Hochvakuum (l0⁻ ³ Pa) und in Wasserstoffumgebung bei verschiedenen Drücken (10³ Pa, 10⁴ Pa und 10⁵ Pa) untersucht. 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.
The polymer chemical structure of the polyimide has a major influence on the tribological behaviour. The addition of graphite in PI2 has a beneficial effect in hydrogen on the friction and wear. The low friction of graphite is associated with a lubricant film in hydrogen. The influence of hydrogen on graphite is more effective than humidity. CNTs have a similar effect to that of graphite in PEEK composites. TiO2 particles improve significantly the wear rate both in vacuum and hydrogen environment. In LH2 friction and wear decrease for unfilled polymers. Friction of graphite filled composites increases slightly and wear rate is stable.
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.
