Impact of gamma radiation of peek on its tribological properties
Niemiec A.
pages 597 - 600, full text

The radiation can bring changes in mechanical, tribological, thermal properties and in chemical, physical states. It was found that the modification through irradiation entailed an increase in hardness which had a direct influence on the tribological properties. An increase in coefficient of friction and decrease in wear rate subjected to the absorbed irradiation dose, was observed after irradiation. It portended a significant reduction of the tribological wear compared to the non-irradiated material. The improvement of tribological properties of PEEK under irradiation environment thus has become a key issue in this paper.
