The tribological behavior of bakelite resin–matrix composites reinforced with nanocrystalline Al 6061 T6 particles produced by machining (grain size 70–500 nm) has been studied using block-on-ring and pin-on-disk tests. The polymer–matrix composite reinforced with nanostructured Al 6061 particles aged for 10 h [Al 6061 (3) 10 h] shows a wear reduction of around 60% with respect to the conventional microstructured reinforcement. Also it shows the lowest wear rates when compared with the nanostructured reinforcements aged for 5 h or 1 h, respectively. Friction coefficients and wear rates increased with increasing sliding speed and normal load. Under 10 N and 0.10 m s−1, Al 6061 (3) 10 h showed an initial friction and contact temperature increase and a very severe wear with material transfer to the steel ball surface. Increasing the steel–composite contact temperature to 100 °C (1 N; 0.05 m s−1) produced a one order of magnitude decrease both in friction and wear. Wear mechanisms for the polymer matrix and the aluminum reinforcement are discussed on the basis of SEM and EDS observations.
