Soft EHL-Based Friction Mechanism of Unreinforced and GF-Reinforced PA66 in Contact with Steel Under PAO8 Oil Lubrication

Résumé

Polyamide 66 is widely used in polymer sliding parts including polymer gear. These parts are used under lubrication of oil and grease. In this study, the friction mechanism of the contact between polyamide 66 and a steel counterpart lubricated with additive-free polyalphaolefin8 oil was discussed by focusing on various parameters including the sliding surface roughness, normal load (contact pressure), sliding speed, temperature, and hardness of the steel counterpart. To explain the friction coefficient obtained under different test conditions, the theoretical minimum oil film thickness was calculated using the equation of the soft elastic hydrodynamic lubrication regime presented by Hamrock and Dowson considering the temperature dependence of oil viscosity and polymer mechanical properties, and the master curve of the relationship between Λ and the friction coefficient was proposed considering the change in the roughness on the sliding surface. In addition, the contributions of the oil film based on the proposed master curve and lubricated solid/solid contact based on the Bowden-Tabor theory to the friction coefficient were discussed. Furthermore, the friction mechanism using the glass fiber-reinforced PA66 composite was investigated and compared to that of the unreinforced PA66.
