Study on the Tribological Properties of Carbon Fabric Reinforced Phenolic Composites Filled with Nano-Al₂O₃

Study on the Tribological Properties of Micro-Al2O3 Modified Carbon Fiber Hybrid-Reinforced Polymer

“…In addition, the cooling and lubricating effect of the water medium reduces the temperature of the contact area, which further inhibits the adhesive wear of the CFHRP. The micro-Al 2 O 3 embedded in the carbon fiber surface enhanced the toughness of the composite and prevented it from being torn directly during wear, thus playing a role in reducing friction and wear [31], which reduced the wear of CF2 and CF3, and the volume wear rate of CF2 was smaller than that of CF3 under water-lubricated conditions, which was due to the strengthening effect of micro-Al 2 O 3 on the composite with the added mass fraction. This is consistent with the study of Bingli, Fan et al [27], so the volume wear rate of CF2 and CF3 under water-lubricated conditions is less than that under dry friction conditions [32].…”
