Synergistic friction and wear reduction in CuSn10-modified basalt fiber-reinforced epoxy composites via protic ionic liquid and graphene nanolubrication

Basalt fiber-reinforced epoxy (BFRP) composites combine a favorable strength-to-weight ratio with relatively low cost, which makes them attractive for structural applications. However, the epoxy matrix has limited abrasion resistance, and this restricts how well these composites...
