| Popis: | Wear and friction behavior of slider materials at cryogenic temperature is important to the development of seals and bearings for missile powerplants. Data were obtained in liquid nitrogen (−320°F) with a series of molded and extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) compositions containing various filler materials. A 3/16-in. radius rider specimen (PTFE materials) was caused to slide in a circumferential path on the flat surface of a rotating 2½-in. diameter disk specimen (usually type 304 stainless steel). The sliding velocity was usually 2300 ft per min and the load was 1000 grams. As compared with reference steels and carbons used in conventional seals and bearings, the filled PTFE compositions gave low wear and friction (friction coefficients from 0.06 to 0.13) in liquid nitrogen. Several extruded compositions have particular promise for seal and bearing materials. An extruded glass-filled material gave wear and friction that was essentially unaffected by sliding velocities to 6000 ft per min. Presente... |
