Regulation of the Tribological Characteristics of Polyester Fabrics by Surface Modification Using Tetrafluoroethylene Telomeres

Abstract

The dependence of the coefficients of friction of polyester fabrics with coatings based on telomeres of tetrafluoroethylene from species of telomeres has been investigated. The stiffness of coatings based on various telomeres of tetrafluoroethylene has been studied. The stability of tribological characteristics of the modified fabrics to operational impacts has been evaluated. It has been established that coatings based on tetrafluoroethylene telomeres synthesized in acetone have a low coefficient of friction and a high resistance to operational impacts. These coatings are characterized by low stiffness.
