Unidirectional　carbon　fibre　cloth/carbon　composite　laminates　were　fabricated　by　hot-pressing　alternating　stacks　of　unidirectional　carbon　fibre　cloth　and　uniformly-spread　powder　mixtures　of　phenolic-resin　coated　nature　graphite　flakes　and　pitch.　The　effects　of　the　contents　of　carbon　fibre　cloth　on　the　density,　porosity,　flexural　strength,　friction　and　wear　properties　of　the　composite　laminates　were　investigated　by　SEM,　a　friction-and-wear　testing　machine　and　a　universal　testing　machine.　Results　showed　that　the　sample　with　the　best　overall　performance　had　a　mass　fraction　of　carbon　fibre　cloth　of　50%.　This　material　had　a　flexural　strength　of　112.2　MPa,　a　density　of　1.72　g/cm(3),　a　friction　coefficient　of　0.28,　and　a　wear　rate　of　3.68x10(-13)　m(3).N-1.m(-1).　Failure　behavior　was　pseudoplastic　and　there　were　a　large　number　of　fibre　pullouts　on　the　fracture　surface.　An　increase　of　graphite　content　was　favorable　for　the　formation　of　a　film　during　wear,　which　reduced　the　wear　rate　and　resulted　in　a　steady　value　of　the　coefficient　of　friction.
