Abstract

PurposeThe purposes of this paper include studying the friction coefficient of polyoxymethylene (POM) under a broad range of normal load and sliding velocity; developing a mathematical model of friction coefficient of POM under a broad range of normal loads and sliding velocities; and applying the model to dynamic finite element (FE) analysis of mechanical devices containing POM components.Design/methodology/approachThrough pin-on-disc experiment, the friction coefficient of POM in different normal loads and sliding velocities is investigated; the average contact pressure is between 5 and 15 Mpa and the sliding velocity is from 0.05 to 0.9 m/s. A friction algorithm is developed and embedded in the FE model to simulate the friction of POM in different normal loads and sliding velocities.FindingsThe friction coefficient of POM against steel declines with the increase of normal loads when the contact pressure is between 5 and 15 Mpa. The friction coefficient of POM against steel increases markedly when the sliding velocity is between 0.05 and 0.15 m/s, it decreases sharply between 0.15-0.45 m/s and then it stabilizes at high sliding velocity between 0.45 and 0.9 m/s.
