Friction 3(4): 259–265 (2015) 261 Fig. 2 Geometry of PEEK cylinder before (a) and after (b) wear test at 30 °C in a tetrafluoroethane atmosphere. Red arrow indicates the sliding direction. The maximum Hertzian pressure (pmax) of the cylinder’s on-plane contacts is given by the expression:  EF 1/2 pmax   (1) from 1.7 × 10–6 mm3/(N·m) at 30 °C to approximately 3.5 × 10–6 mm3/(N·m) at 80 °C. At high temperatures, the cohesive properties of the polymeric matrix were significantly reduced, thus enhancing the polymer abrasive wear [13−15]. Figure 4 presents typical axonometric projections from virgin and as-worn counter body surfaces. Grooves aligned in the sliding direction on the metallic surfaces were formed during the tribological tests. The resulting average root mean square roughness (Rq) values measured on the virgin and worn counter body surfaces are summarized in Fig. 5. Sliding tests increased the counter body surface roughness by approximately 600%. It is clear that the tribological tests drastically changed the topography of the counter bodies. However, the resulting roughness after the tribological tests seemed to be independent of evaluated temperatures and atmospheres. Moreover, profile analyses on wear tracks were performed to evaluate the nature of the groves dis- played in Fig. 4. As exemplified in Fig. 6, peaks and valleys were defined from the mean height of the virgin region, and their areas were calculated. Six profiles were evaluated for each tested condition. From the results, no statistically relevant difference was observed between the total area of the peaks and valleys. In other words, representative volumetric changes did not occur on the metallic surfaces. Therefore, it is possible to attribute groove formation to a microploughing abrasive mechanism [16]. Because successive plowing leads to microfatigue wear mechanisms [16], one can consider these grooves to have been mainly produced in the earlier stages of tribological contact, when the nominal contact pressure was close to 210 MPa, which is about the yield stress of AISI 304 stainless steel (215 MPa). However, previous work [17] has revealed that even πlR 1 (1v2) (1v2) 12 (2) EE1 E2 where F is the applied load, and l and R are the cylinder length and radius, respectively. E and v represent the Young’s Modulus and the Poisson coefficient, whereas the indices 1 and 2 represent the polymeric cylinder and the metallic counter body, respectively. The nominal pressure is given by the applied load divided by the apparent contact area (worn area in Fig. 2(b)). The resulting average wear rates experienced by the polymeric composites are summarized in Fig. 3. Atmospheric air and tetrafluoroethane showed no representative effect on the polymer wear rates. Cannaday and Polycarpou [3] reported that PEEK and PEEK composites showed a slight wear rate reduction when tested in a tetrafluoroethane atmosphere. Howe- ver, the temperature drove the increase in wear rates Wear rate of PEEK cylinders during sliding tests against AISI 304 stainless steel discs. Fig. 3
