The friction and wear behavior of molybdenum disulfide filled polymer composites sliding against metal has been investigated using pin-on-disc machine and microscope. The observed wear rates were reduced by the addition of MoS$_2$ to nylon and this can be attributed to the homogenous transfer of MoS$_2$ to the counteddace thereby modifying sliding conditions. The friction of filled and unfilled nylon was increased with increasing sliding speed, and the catastropic wear rate was occurred at high normal load. This have been explained by thermal degradation. In the case of HDPE, however, the wear rate was not always reduced by the addition of MoS$_2$ and the influence of MoS$_2$ was mainly even the opposite. Filled and unfilled HDPE had lower values of friction and wear rate than those of nylon. Micrographs appeared that the delamination of the worn surface in nylon/MoS$_2$ composite occurred and revealed that the worn surface of HDPE presented a number of characteristic features as wear grooves, pulls, and smears and crescents.
