The water-absorptivity in the blend decreases with increasing PTFE content, which indicates that the PTFE phase restrains the polyamide phase from water absorption. For water-free blends, the addition of PTFE causes a reduction in tensile strength, while for water-absorbed PTFE/PA6 blends, the tensile strength increases with increasing PTFE. Simultaneously, the absorbed water improves the elongation, but results in a notable reduction in flexural strength of the blends. Although the addition of PTFE causes a reduction in notched impact strength of the blends, as compared to pure polyamide, the absorbed water has little effects on the notched impact strength of the blends. Finally, the effects of temperature and loading frequency on complex viscosity parameters of PTFE/PA6 and PTFE/PA66 melts were tested. It is found that the complex viscosity of PTFE/PA6 melt is reversed with increasing temperature and shear velocity, but that of PTFE/PA66 melt increases approximately in exponential form with increasing temperature. To fill polyamide with suitable mass percentage of PTFE can effectively reduce the viscosity of blend, and as a result, the molding and processing properties are improved.展开更多

The focus of this paper is to get the relationship between the volume fraction of three constituents and the mechanical properties of the composite by doing tensile, hardness and wear test. The effect of the constituent volume fractions was evaluated. Short Kevlar49 fibers reinforced PA6 （Polyamide 6） with PTFE filler were studied in five different combinations. The results of the experiments show that the mechanical properties increase with Keviar fibers increase, then they decrease after the Kevlar fiber volume reaches one number.展开更多
