The fabrication technique includes the formation of a paper layer based on the mixture of stated fibers via a wet-laid process, impregnation of the layer with phenolic resin, and hot pressing onto a steel carrier. The infrared spectra of the polymeric base (phenolic resin) were studied by solvent extraction. The structural-phase analysis of the obtained material was carried out by the SEM method, and the particle size distribution parameters of the composite components were estimated based on the images of the sample surface. The surface roughness parameters of the samples are as follows: Ra = 5.7 \u03bcm Rz = 31.4 \u03bcm. The tribotechnical characteristics of the material were tested in an oil medium at a load of 5.0 MPa and a rotation mode of 2000 rpm for 180 min in a pair with a steel 45 counterbody. The coefficient of friction of the developed material was 0.11\u20130.12; the degree of wear was 6.17 \u00d7 10\u22126 \u03bcm\/mm. The degree of compression deformation of the composite is 0.36%, and the compressive strength is 7.8 MPa. The calculated kinetic energy absorbed and power level are 205 J\/cm2 and 110 W\/cm2, respectively. The main tribotechnical characteristics of the developed friction material correspond to industrial analogues.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma18163847","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,18]],"date-time":"2025-08-18T13:28:22Z","timestamp":1755523702000},"page":"3847","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Tribotechnical and Physical Characteristics of a Friction Composite Made of a Polymer Matrix Reinforced with a Complex of Fiber-Dispersed Particles"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1696-300X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ievgen","family":"Byba","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"E.O.
