As can be seen from tables 1 and 2, the PEEK-based composite material provided by the invention has higher mechanical properties and better wear resistance and heat resistance. Comparative example 1 the intercalation and coating effect of the subsequent particulate matter was affected without peeling the tungsten disulfide sheet, comparative example 1 corresponds to blending of materials, and the change in microstructure of the core material would result in a greater decrease in wear resistance with an increase in wear rate of about 38%. Comparative example 2 although the tungsten disulfide sheet was peeled off, the intercalation step and the coating step were combined into one step, so that the intercalation process could not be uniformly achieved, and thus the abrasion resistance was lowered and the abrasion rate was increased by about 32%. In comparative example 3, the core material (the particulate lubricant intercalation layer lubricant) was not coated with the coupling agent, and the abrasion rate was increased by about 43%, and it was found that the lubricant material was unevenly dispersed in the PEEK matrix without using the coupling agent, resulting in a decrease in abrasion resistance. The absence of phosphate in the modified lubricant of comparative example 4 resulted in an increase in wear rate of about 13.6%; the modified lubricant of comparative example 5 was free of stannous sulfide, resulting in an increase in wear rate of about 18%; the modified lubricant of comparative example 6 was free of lamellar tungsten disulfide, resulting in an increase in wear rate of about 52%. It can be seen that the lamellar tungsten disulfide plays a main role in wear resistance in the action of wear resistance, phosphate and stannous sulfide are inserted into the lamellar tungsten disulfide, and the coating silane coupling agent can play a more excellent role in lubricity, so that a continuous thin transfer film with high adhesion strength is formed on microcosmic scale, and the wear resistance is further improved in cooperation with the lubrication action of PTFE on macroscopic scale.
