Abstract
MoS2 reinforced PDMS/MC nylon composites had been fabricated by in situ polymerization to further enhance the comprehensive properties of nylon material. Polydimethylsiloxane was pre-sythesized as the activator of the system and MoS2 was compounded as the wear-resisting agent. The thermal stability, mechanical properties, friction and wear properties of composites with different MoS2 contents were tested. The results showed that the crystallization and thermal stability of nylon matrix were increased with the addition of MoS2, while the tensile strength and impact strength were slightly reduced. The composites finally presented excellent friction properties with 3 wt% MoS2, whose friction coefficient was reduced to 0.75 (18.48% decrease) corresponding to the wear rate of 0.4145 × 10−8 g Nm−1.
