In the paper, the polystyrene and multi-walled carbon nano-tubes are mixed to make nano-composites. The pin-on-disk tribometer is used to detect the friction coefficient, wear rate, and wear depth under different pressures and sliding speeds. Adding water can reduce the friction force. Enhancing the sliding speed can also sooth the friction. Both the wear rate and wear depth of the sample after adding the carbon nano-tubes are decreased. After adding carbon nano-tubes to the matrix material, the wear resistance is promoted up to 56.4% and 88.6% under dry and wet lubrication, respectively.
