264 Friction 3(4): 259–265 (2015) the lower steady-state friction coefficient observed in the samples tested in atmospheric air at 80 °C. Moreover, according to McCook et al. [12], the relative humidity present in atmospheric air increases the friction coefficient of the PEEK matrix running against the metallic surfaces. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that during running-in and steady-state regimes at low temperatures, the adhesive interfacial forces are governed by interactions between the PEEK matrix and the metallic surface, rather than the tribo-layer. In other words, the tribo-layers during running-in regimes and steady-state regimes at low temperatures were not thick enough to be effective. 4 Conclusions 1. PEEK composite wear rates were drastically affected by the test temperature, but no significant atmos- pheric dependence was detected. 2. Sliding tests wore AISI 304 stainless steel counter bodies under all testing conditions, resulting in an increased surface roughness (Rq) but no volumetric losses. 3. Graphite-based tribo-layers were observed on counter body surfaces after the sliding tests. 4. Higher test temperatures enhanced the formation of tribo-layers, and the presence of humid atmospheric air resulted in graphite structures with greater disor- der, and consequently lower friction coefficients. 5. Without an effective tribo-layer, the presence of humidity in atmospheric air enhanced the system’s friction coefficient. 6. The friction of samples tested in a dry tetrafluoroe- thane atmosphere showed no significant temperature dependence.
