Abstract

TiO2 and SiO2 nanoparticles were introduced into hybrid polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/Kevlar fabric/phenolic composites. The results showed the incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles can reduce the wear rate of the fabric/phenolic composite at elevated temperatures, although the wear of hybrid PTFE/Kevlar fabric/phenolic composite did not change much when TiO2 or SiO2 nanoparticles were used as filler. The wear behavior was explained in terms of morphology of transfer films and worn surfaces. There was a good correlation between the morphology of transfer film and wear results.
