Two-dimensional layered nanofillers are promising candidates for tribological enhancement, yet uniform filler dispersion and robust filler\u2013matrix bonding remain challenging. In this study, nickel phyllosilicate nanosheet assemblies (NiPS\u2212NA) were synthesized via a two-step hydrothermal route using Ni-MOF as a sacrificial template and blended into the EP matrix to fabricate composites. A series of characterizations were carried out to evaluate the structure\u2013property relationships of EP\/NiPS\u2013NA composites. Loosely stacked NiPS\u2013NA nanosheets disperse uniformly within the EP matrix and comprehensively improve the comprehensive properties of EP\/NiPS\u2013NA composites. As NiPS\u2013NA loading increases, elongation at break rises to a peak value of 6.0% at 3% filler content, representing a 43.3% improvement over neat EP, whereas tensile strength increases steadily with only minor variations in elastic modulus. Incorporated NiPS\u2013NA suppresses thermal weight loss, elevates the high-temperature char yield and raises the activation energy for thermal decomposition. Notably, the composite containing 5% NiPS\u2013NA delivers the lowest wear rate of 1.02 \u00d7 10\u22125 mm3\/N\u00b7m, an 89.4% reduction relative to unfilled EP. Extensive examinations of worn surfaces further clarify the NiPS\u2013NA-mediated wear mechanism. This work offers a facile three-in-one strategy for preparing high-performance wear-resistant polymeric composites.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/polym18182206","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,10]],"date-time":"2026-09-10T13:04:57Z","timestamp":1789045497000},"page":"2206","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Facilely Synthesis of MOF-Derived Nickel Phyllosilicate Nanosheet Assembly and Its Application in Robust, Toughened and Wear-Resistant Epoxy Composites"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8488-3693","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dongliang","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Ocean Engineering, Guangzhou Maritime University, Guangzhou 510725, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"formal-analysis","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-original-draft","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"funding-acquisition","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Weilong","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials Science and Technology, Anhui University of Science and Technology, Huainan 232001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"investigation","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-original-draft","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"given":"Hengzhi","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials Science and Engineering, Nanjing Institute of Technology, Nanjing 211167, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"methodology","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"supervision","vocabulary":"credit"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1630-0203","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jinian","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials Science and Technology, Anhui University of Science and Technology, Huainan 232001, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"},{"role":"conceptualization","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"writing-review-editing","vocabulary":"credit"},{"role":"supervision","vocabulary":"credit"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2682","DOI":"10.1007\/s10853-019-04196-y","article-title":"Carbon nanotube- and graphene-reinforced multiphase polymeric composites: Review on their properties and applications","volume":"55","author":"Kumar","year":"2020","journal-title":"J.
