Abstract

The well-known elastic polymeric material polyether urethane urea SKU-PFL, which is a typical segmented block copolymer, was chosen as an object of study. Powdered microdispersed fillers capable of improving wear resistance were added to this material at the manufacturing stage in different amounts (up to 1.5 wt %): calcium stearate and molybdenum disulfide. The found level of the optimal filler concentration for the studied elastomers in the region close to 0.5 wt % makes it possible to consider calcium stearate and molybdenum disulfide as not only effective, but also economical, components of promising wear-resistant polymeric materials.
