摘要：Although the size effects of a filler are closely related to the complex multi-level structures of their polymer composites;unfortunately,such relationships remain poorly understood.In this study,we investigated the effects of various sizes(40-600 nm)of silicon carbide(SiC)fillers on the wear behavior of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)in the presence of the silane coupling agent KH-560.All of these SiC fillers improved the wear resistance of UHMWPE significantly,with a medium size(150 nm)being optimal.To examine the reasons for this behavior,we analyzed the multi-level structures of the samples in terms of their matrix structures(crystalline;amorphous;interphase),matrix-filler interactions(physical adsorption;chemical crosslinking;hybrid network)and the external effects of SiC fillers(bearing loads;transferring frictional heat).The high rigidity and thermal conductivity of SiC fillers and,more importantly,the intrinsic characteristics of the matrix structures(larger crystal grains;higher interphase;stronger amorphous entangled networks)were the key parameters affecting the enhancement in the wear-resistance of the UHMWPE.Herein,we also provide interpretations of the corresponding physical effects.Our results should improve our understanding of the structure-property relationships and,thus,should guide the formula design of UHMWPE composites.
