Physico-mechanical and tribological characterisation for carbon fibre reinforced polymeric matrix composite materials

The polymeric composite represent a class of new materials with multiple applications in special technology fields. The technology applied to produce polymeric composite materials was based 10 - layer preforms. The investigation made during the present work were based on the production of composite materials with improved tribological properties. The polymeric composite materials of the present work were characterised by porosity, density, strength measurements; the tribological characterisation was made together with microstructural investigation. The microstructural investigations were made on the samples used for the wear testing.
