In this study, the effects of air‐plasma and N 2 ‐plasma treatment on the hybrid polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/cotton fabric and a phenolic resin were investigated in detail. The tribological properties of the untreated and plasma‐treated hybrid PTFE/cotton fabric/phenolic composites were investigated. The results indicated that air‐plasma‐treated hybrid PTFE/cotton fabric/phenolic composites exhibited better antiwear and friction reduction properties. The combination of scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis illustrated that hybrid PTFE/cotton fabric/phenolic composites treated with air‐plasma possessed more integrated structure and more functional groups, which plausibly contributed to the better tribological properties of the hybrid PTFE/cotton fabric/phenolic composites treated with air‐plasma.
