The Effect of CF Modification on the Flexural and Tribological Properties of PTFE Composites

Wen Xia Wang

Abstract

The effects of CF content on flexural and tribological properties of the composites were investigated. The worn surface morphologies of neat PTFE and its composites were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the wear mechanisms were discussed. The presence of CF particles dispersed in the PTFE continuous phase exhibited superior tribological characteristics to unfilled PTFE.
