STUDY OF THE INFLUENCE OF TERLON ORGANIC FIBER CONTENT ON TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF AROMATIC POLYAMIDA PHENILON С-1

Abstract

The influence of operating modes on the tribological properties of the aromatic polyamide phenylone C-1 and
organoplastics based on it, reinforced with 15 and 25 wt. % organic fiber terlon, has been studied. It is shown that when
working in conditions of friction without lubrication, the low friction coefficient and high wear resistance has the
organoplastic which contains 25 wt. % organic fiber. The coefficient of friction of the specified organoplastic during
operation under conditions of sliding speed X = 1 m/s in the range of specific loads P = 0.2–0.8 MPa in comparison with the
initial polymer has decreased by an average of 27-63%. At sliding velocities of 1.5 and 2 m/s, the polymeric material remained
operational up to maximum loads and had a friction coefficient on average 2.5 times lower than that of phenylоne C-1.
Organoplastic containing 25 wt. % terlon, had minimal wear and stably worked in the entire studied mode of specific loads
and sliding speeds having PV performance criterion more than 2 times higher than that of the polymeric binder
