Wear testing for the nanocomposites over up to 120 h was carried out and then dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss factor of the polymer composites with the increased wear time were studied. Scanning electron microscope and optical microscope observations were made to analyze the microstructure features of the nanocomposites. The results reveal that there exist approximate linear relationships of permittivity with wear coefficient for the nanocomposites. Composites containing silanized CNFs with the sufficiently thick coating exhibited high wear resistance. The change in permittivity was more sensitive to the increased wear coefficient for the nanocomposites with lower wear resistance. This work provides potential for further research on the application of dielectric signals to detect the effects of wear process on lifetime of polymeric materials. Introduction Making polymers into nanocomposites with the addition of appropriate nanofillers has been shown to be an effective way to obtain a multitude of enhanced properties and even extend to multi-functionalities not normally considered possible for polymeric materials. A variety of properties such as physical thermal mechanical and others as well as combinations of them have been investigated for numerous nanocomposites in order to meet the burgeoning demands of industry. For example carbon nanofillers such as carbon nanotubes CNTs and carbon nanofibers CNFs not only improve electrical conductivity and dielectric .
