Impact of gamma radiation of peek on its tribological properties
Abstract eng: The radiation can bring changes in mechanical, tribological, thermal properties and in chemical, physical states. It was found that the modification through irradiation entailed an increase in hardness which had a direct influence on the tribological properties. An increase in coefficient of friction and decrease in wear rate subjected to the absorbed irradiation dose, was observed after irradiation. It portended a significant reduction of the tribological wear compared to the non-irradiated material. The improvement of tribological properties of PEEK under irradiation environment thus has become a key issue in this paper.
