Mechanical properties and morphologies of poly(ether ketone ketone)/glass fibers/mica ternary composites

Poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK) composites were developed using glass fibers (GF) and mica as combining fillers. For the composites having 30 wt% of the total fillers, the highest tensile strength was observed at the filler containing ca. 50 wt% of mica. Partial replacement of GF with mica resulted...

Description
Summary:Poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK) composites were developed using glass fibers (GF) and mica as combining fillers. For the composites having 30 wt% of the total fillers, the highest tensile strength was observed at the filler containing ca. 50 wt% of mica. Partial replacement of GF with mica resulted in reduced coefficient of friction and wearing rate of the materials. The fractured surface of the composites did not have large voids and microcracks.
