Effect of Lubrication on Friction and Wear Properties of PEEK with Steel Counterparts

Poly-Ether-Ether-Ketone (PEEK) has been widely used for tribological applications with steel counterparts because of its superior mechanical and self-lubricating properties. Fluid lubrication has the potential to further improve the performance of PEEK/steel contacts but its effect has been shown to...
