smoothening of the wear track surfaces is clearly observable. Also, note that the mean plane of the smoothened wear track surface (from 4 to 10 mm scan length) is sometimes located slightly higher than the lowest point of the valleys in the original coating surfaces (both edges of wear profiles from 0 to 2 or from 12 to 14 mm scan length). This is attributed to the fact that the very fine PTFE-based wear debris (observed after testing) was filling the valleys and pits of the initial rough coating surfaces, and thus, solid polymer lubricant can stay continuously trapped inside the wear track, thus effectively lubricating the dry interface preventing catastrophic failure. None of these behaviors were observed in the other coatings, which alludes to the fact that this is a critical mechanism of polymeric coatings in determining their tribological performance. This “filling effect” of wear debris is also seen in the optical pictures in Figure 3.9, showing the wear tracks after unidirectional testing. The wear tracks of PTFE/Pyrrolidone-2 and PTFE/MoS2 coatings are very glossy after sliding because the surface got smoothened due to the filling effect of the wear debris. On the contrary PEEK based coatings generated flake-like debris, and resulted in continuous coating material removal and thus higher wear rates. In the case of the scuffed coatings (Fluorocarbon and Resin/PTFE/MoS2), complete penetration of the coatings was observed, thus exposing the cast iron substrate surface as seen in Figure 3.9(d). Because the counterpart (shoe) surface is extremely smooth (0.035 μm), the filling effect is not observable on the shoe surface, and in this case, usually very thin transfer film is supposed to be formed on it (Escobar Nunez et al., 2011). 38
