  • Patent number: 9982209
    Abstract: A low-wear fluoropolymer composite body comprises at least one fluoropolymer and additive particles dispersed therein. Also provided is a process for the fabrication of such a fluoropolymer composite body. The composite body exhibits a low wear rate for sliding motion against a hard counterface, and may be formulated with either melt-processible or non-melt-processible fluoropolymers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 20, 2013
    Date of Patent: May 29, 2018
    Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC
