Abstract: A comparative study has been carried out on performance of two-dimensionally reinforced carbon/phenolic (C/P) and carbon/epoxy (C/E) composites, subjected to low amplitude reciprocating wear at different temperatures. The C/P composite has shown greater wear rate than the C/E composite, with the difference being modest at room temperature, and larger at 250 °C. The values of coefficient of friction, surface roughness, and depths of craters on worn surfaces have been measured, which along with surface morphologies examined by scanning electron microscope have been correlated to both amount of weight loss and mechanisms of damage by wear.
