With the speed up of the train, higher performance demands are put forward to the materials which have friction function. The friction materials produced by power metallurgy technology have a lot of advantages, such as good wear resistance, better thermal conductivity, bearing high lord, work reliably and so on. So they are used widely in the fields such as auto industry, aerospace and so on. The application of metal powder metallurgy technology in preparation friction materials of railway vehicles was researched in this paper, such as brake-shoe, brake lining of train braking, pantograph slide of electric locomotive, electrify boots slider of the maglev train and so on.

The Cu-based friction materials with nano-AlN (n-AlN) and nano-graphite (n-C) were prepared by powder metallurgy technology, respectively. The microstructures and friction performance were studied through scanning electron microscope (SEM) and friction tester rig, respectively. The results indicate that the n-AlN and n-C particles can enhance the properties of Cu-based friction materials remarkably. Compared with the friction materials without any nanometer materials, the wear resistance of the friction materials with n-AlN and n-C has been improved by 25 % and 11 %, respectively. The heat resistance of the materials with n-AlN and n-C has been improved 18 % and 25 %, respectively. The n-AlN and n-C particles can reduce the abrasive wear and enhance the wear resistance of the Cu-based friction materials.

The Cu-based friction material with Ni coated nanometer SiO2 (Ni/n-SiO2) particles was prepared by the powder metallurgy technology. Friction properties of the friction materials were evaluated by a friction tester. The microstructure and worn morphology were characterized by optical microscope (OM) and scanning electric microscope (SEM). The results indicate that the microstructure is uniform. The Ni/n-SiO2 particles can enhance the wear ability of Cu-based friction materials. The wear rate of the friction material with Ni/n-SiO2 is 6.58 times of that without Ni/n-SiO2. The main wear mechanisms are abrasive wear and adhesive wear, and Ni/n-SiO2 particles can reduce the abrasive wear and adhesive wear.

In this study, flyash based non asbestos organic brake lining composition of more than 14 ingredients was investigated to study the effect of ingredients on various behavior of friction properties. Two types of friction materials with different combinations were developed: i) fly ash range (10 %to 60%) and ii) without fly ash based friction materials were investigated to study the effect of ingredients on the friction characteristics and wear. The main focus on the average normal coefficient of friction, hot coefficient of friction (Fade and recovery), wear loss, mechanical, as the function of the relative amount of the ingredient. The results also showed that the friction coefficient of fly ash based friction material was better in the range of 0.35 to 0.48 when compared barites based brake linings in the range of 0.46 to 0.58. The materials such as potassium titanate(terraces), wollastonite, friction dust powder have strongly influence on friction coefficient. The wear résistance of the brake linings was strongly affected by the presence of rock wool calcium hydroxide and zircon silicate. The presence of glass fiber, twaron fiber, glass fiber has increased the strength of the friction material. All these samples were tested on chase type friction tester at automobile ancillary unit.

Friction Materials

During the design process, railway friction materials are subject to extensive testing which allows for a thorough assessment of their compliance with versatile requirements and expected characteristics. These tests include, among other, laboratory tests of mechanical, physicochemical, thermophysical and tribological properties. For a designer it is crucial to understand how formulation modification influences characteristics of the friction material. One of the key ingredients in the formulation of friction materials is reinforcing fibre. In this study, two composite, organic railway brake shoes with equal amount of two different reinforcing fibres, namely steel wool and glass fibre, were tested according to the procedures of a railway friction materials manufacturer. Test results were analysed and compared. The substitution of reinforcing fibre had a noticeable effect on each of the properties of the composites considered in this study.
