Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) tendons are generally used as prestressing members to take full advantage of their high strength. Their creep property is one of the key factors influencing the reliability and safety of the structures, especially under sustained high stress. In this study, using a new wedge-type anchorage system, experimental research was carried out on the creep behavior of CFRP tendons under high stress levels from 0.69 to 0.85 fu. All the tests lasted for a duration of 1000 h. It was found that the creep coefficient tends to increase with the stress level. Compared to their static properties, the residual strength of CFRP tendons after creep tests is 4.54% lower while the after-creep elastic modulus is 6.99% higher. Through data analysis, a semi-logarithm linear relationship between the creep coefficient and time was established, and the creep coefficients at 1 million hours were extrapolated.

The present work investigates the wear properties of nanoclay-modified carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites when sliding under adhesive and abrasive wear. The specimens were fabricated using epoxy resin, short carbon fiber, and nanoclay filler of 1.0wt%, 3.0wt%, and 5.0wt% content. The wear tests were conducted using pin-on-disc and abrasion resistance test rig for adhesive and abrasive wear condition, respectively. Operating parameters were fixed at 30N load, 300rpm speed and 10km distance for both tests. Pure CFRP composite exhibited lower wear performance compared to pure epoxy in both test conditions. However, with nanoclay incorporation, the wear properties of CFRP composite have improved up to 56% and 44% under adhesive and abrasive wear, respectively. Therefore, the composite reinforced polymer of carbon fiber and nanoclay filler in epoxy matrix provides a synergistic effect under adhesive and abrasive wear conditions. The experimental findings suggest that the CFRP composite has the potential for tribological components and application such as sliding-contact and rolling-contact bearings.
