Abstract

Due to the intensive development of technology, the use of polymers increased rapidly during past five decades. Since polymers are being used in wide variety of fields from industrial applications to commercial products, more technical data about various characteristics of polymers is needed in order to understand the behavior of polymers. In this paper, the noise characteristics of various polymers in polymer-metal contact, were studied using a block on ring experimental setup. The friction-induced noise generated by polymer-metal contact was monitored and the sound pressure levels were measured at three different sliding speeds and at a fixed normal load of 45 N for MoS2 filled cast polyamide 6, MoS2 filled polyamide 66 and unfilled polyamide 6. The experimental results indicated that the sound pressure level was nearly independent of sliding distance and slightly increased with the sliding speed in the low center frequencies of 1/3 octave bands. Moreover, in the cases where the coefficient of dynamic friction was relatively high, a significant increase was observed in the sound pressure level due to the effect of friction induced vibration.
