Abstract
Oleic acid-modified CuS nanoparticles were chemically synthesized. The tribological properties of surface modified and unmodified CuS nanoparticles as additives in the hybrid polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/Kevlar fabric/phenolic composite were investigated in detail. The experimental results indicated that the incorporation of modified CuS nanoparticles improved the antiwear ability of the fabric/phenolic composite at varied loads and environmental temperatures. The reasons for the enhanced wear properties of the fabric/phenolic composite filled with surface-modified CuS nanoparticles were discussed based on the results of scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
