New Polymer Composites Including a Phenol-Formaldehyde Resin Binder Designed for Self-Lubricating Sliding Pair Elements
Abstract
Test results are presented of composites used in self-lubricating sliding pairs where resol phenol-formaldehyde (AW-1, FDP), novolak phenol-formaldehyde, and anthracene-phenol resins are applied as binders. Thermal resistance, load capacity, friction resistances, wear values, and formation of top layers of friction-coupled elements are studied. A model composite with 9 MPam/s load capacity and friction wear resistance greater than of composites available in the domestic and international markets, comparable friction resistances, and lower production costs is developed.
