- (a)
- PTFE particles reduced the COFs and wear mass losses of the TPU composites, with 9% PTFE reducing the COF and wear mass losses by more than 50% and 40%, respectively.
- (b)
- A suitable mass content of PTFE obviously weakened the amplitudes of the main vibration frequencies of the TPU materials, as well as eliminated vibration waveforms at higher frequencies.
- (c)
- The lower COFs of TPU modified with PTFE resulted in a small fluctuation amplitude, which improved the stability of the tribological system, resulting in an ideal reduction in frictional vibration and noise.
