Research on Friction and Wear Properties of MC Nylon/ Carbon Nanotubes Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this article, MC nylon/carbon nano tubes (CNTs) composites were prepared by in-situ polymerization method. The friction and wear properties were determined. The sample wear surface morphology carried out by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the wear mechanism was investigated. It was found that the friction coefficient of composites has decreased with the amount of CNTs increasing in the composites. Addition amount of CNTs is up to 0.3% (weight percent), abrasion index decreased to minimum. The abrasion index of the sample of wearing a long time is smaller than that of the sample of wearing a short time. The sample with wearing less time mainly take place adhesive wear, however, mainly happen abrasive wear and adhesive wear for wearing time is longer. Further more, carbon nano tubes (CNTs) are not only improve the wear resistance of composites but also improve the mechanics performance.
