Abstract
Tribological behaviour of synthetic diamond reinforced poly ether ether ketone was studied for polymer self-lubricate bearing components. Addition of reinforcement to the matrix improved its mechanical, thermal and tribo properties of composite. Synthetic diamond provides many advantageous properties which is responsible for higher hardness and lowered the thermal degradation. This paper deals with synthetic diamonds of various volume fractions reinforced with PEEK. This thermo polymer matrix composite was manufactured by powder metallurgy process. The characterization of synthetic diamond and polymer matrix composites was done by scanning electron microscopy. Wear and tribo coefficient of developed PEEK matrix composite was found by tribometer. Diamond particles were used to prevent severe galling during higher loading.
