AbstractThe various properties of the blends of polyacetal (POM) with up to 20 wt.‐% chemically surface‐treated poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (CPTFE) were investigated and compared with those of POM/PTFE blends. The PTFE is added to POM to improve the wear properties, however, the mechanical properties of POM/PTFE blends decrease with increasing PTFE content, but tensile strength and Young's modulus of POM/CPTFE blends are more than 2 times higher than that of the POM/PTFE blends. SEM shows that the size of inherent agglomerative PTFE is in the range of 30 to 100 μm. The particle size of major CPTFE dispersed in POM is smaller than 1 μm.
