The paper studies the effect of alumosilicate nanofillers of tubular and lamellar shape on the friction and wear of epoxy composites. It is shown that the influence of concentration and shape of the fillers on the tribological behavior of the composites is due to variations in their viscoelastic properties and shielding of the contact area of the matrix material with the metallic counterbody by the filler particles. The data evidence that at equal concentrations of alumosilicate fillers in the epoxy matrix, the best tribological characteristics are provided in the case of tubular-shaped particles.
