In this experiment, the effects of hair fibers on friction and wear property, Rockwell hardness and impact strength of friction materials were examined. The results showed that friction coefficient increases and stabilizes and specific wear rates were decrease as the hair fibers were filled and, particularly, 1% of the hair fiber content had a significant effect in the friction material. As temperature was changed, the stability of the friction coefficient of friction materials can be improved, the Rockwell hardness decrease and the impact strengths increase by way of increasing the content of hair fibers. The worn surfaces of friction materials were examined by scanning electron microscopy and wear mechanisms were analyzed. So it’s a kind of quite good non-asbestos friction material.

Friction material is essential for automotive braking system. Based on previous study of existing friction material problems, hybrid biological fiber-reinforced resin-based friction materials (HBRMs, from the reinforced fiber component of resin-based friction materials) were explored in this study. Bamboo fiber, jute fiber and wool fiber (all have length of 3-5 mm) were processed to make three types of HBRMs and considered as three factors of biological reinforced fiber in test using orthogonal experimental design. Each factor had three levels of 1%, 2% and 3% fiber mass fraction while the ratio of other raw materials remains unchanged. According to the orthogonal experimental design table, nine formulations (denoted as M1-M9) were determined to test the HBRMs. For comparison, non-bio-fiber reinforced friction material (NBM) was added in the test. The properties of the HBRMs tested included Rockwell hardness, impact strength and density. The friction and wear performance of the braking materials was examined by a speed friction tester. The results show that the friction coefficient of the HBRMs was slightly higher than that of the NBM, indicating biological fibers affected the friction coefficient. The friction coefficient of the HBRMs decreased firstly with the increase of temperature and had the lowest value when the temperature reached 300°C, and it increased then as temperature increased. During recovery process, the friction coefficient of the HBRMs firstly increased with the decrease of temperature and then decreased greatly when the temperature dropped to 100°C. The wear rates of the HBRMs increased with the increase of temperature and reached maximum value when temperature reached 200°C, then it decreased with the increase of temperature. The results of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation analysis on the friction coefficient and wear rate show that the best comprehensive properties were presented when the mass fraction of bamboo, jute and wool fiber were 3%, 3% and 1%，respectively.

The Impact

The peculiar feature of friction materials to absorb the kinetic energy of rotating wheels of an automobile to control the speed makes them remarkable in automobile field. The regulation of speed cannot be achieved with the use of single phase material as a friction material. Consequently, the friction material should be comprised of composite materials which consist of several ingredients. Incidentally, the friction materials were formulated with friction modifier, binders, fillers and reinforcements. Due to its pleasant physical properties, asbestos was being used as a filler. Past few decades, it is found that asbestos causes dangerous cancer to its inhaler, which provides a scope its replacement. Several attempts have been made to find an alternative to the hazardous asbestos. The efforts made by different researchers for the impact of every composition of composite friction material in the field are reviewed and studied for their effect on the properties of friction material. Surface morphological studies of different friction material are compared to interpret the concept of surface wear and its correlation with material properties.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate use of colemanite (C) upon friction and wear performance of automotive brake lining. Brake lining production with the boron product colemanite addition and braking characterization investigated for development of non-asbestos organic (NAO) brake lining because of negative effects on human health and environmental hazard of asbestos containing linings. During the braking, brake lining is warmed up extremely due to friction, and the high temperature causes to decreasing of breaking performance. Colemanite has high melting temperature, and this makes this material valuable for brake lining. Design/methodology/approach – This study investigated the effect of colemanite (C) upon friction and wear performance of automotive brake lining. Based on a simple experimental formulation, different amounts of boron product colemanite were used and then evaluated using a friction assessment and screening test. In these specimens, half of the samples (shown with H indices) were heat treated in 4 h at 180°C temperature. Friction coefficient, wear rate and scanning electron microscope for friction surfaces were used to assess the performance of these samples. Findings – The results of test showed that colemanite can substantially improve properties of friction materials. The friction coefficient of friction materials modified with colemanite varies steadily with the change of temperature, and the wearing rate of friction materials is relatively low by using colemanite. Heat treatment-applied samples (CH) have provided a higher and stable friction coefficient. These results indicate that colemanite has ideal application effect in various friction materials. Originality/value – This paper fulfils an identified information and offers practical help to the industrial firms working with brake lining and also to the academicians working on wear of materials. Parallel results have been presented between previously reported and present study, in view of brake characteristics and wear resistance. Use of the lower cost and productive organic sources of material are the main improvement of the present study.

AbstractAs an alternative to short fibers, non-woven fabrics (NWFs) were made using different types of long fibers to optimize the performance of paper-based friction materials and their technology. In this investigation, the fillers and resin were impregnated into these NWFs to prepare three kinds of wet friction material. The tribological, mechanical, and thermal properties of the new wet friction material were studied. The results indicate that the dynamic friction coefficient of the new friction material is approximately 0.12 and the static friction coefficient is approximately 0.15; the better wear rate is 0.81334 × 10-14 m3·(N·m)-1. In addition, the temperature for 10% mass loss yielded 100 °C enhancement and the tensile strength was improved by 200%, compared to previously reported values. Most importantly, the advantages include a simple preparation flow, low cost, and resource conservation. This is a promising approach for the future development of paper-based friction materials.

Friction And Wear Characteristics

Cu-based powder metallurgy friction materials were prepared by varying of Fe and C (% weight) in the friction components. The samples were compacted under the load of 24 metric tonnes and sintered at a temperature of 950 °C for 45 minutes. The friction and wear characteristics the materials developed were studied using Chase machine. The results show that Fe and C have different friction and wear characteristics. The friction coefficient of Cu-30%Fe-15%C sample maintained to be high and slightly increased after the drum temperature of 350°C and subsequently stable throughout tests. The friction of Cu-20%Fe-10%C stable until the drum temperature of 450°C and then its start to decay slightly until the end of the test. On the hand, the friction of Cu-10%Fe-5%C start to decay after sliding a few minutes at the drum temperature of 230°C. Thus, it could be postulated that the friction coefficient increased with increasing weight percentage of Fe and C in the friction components. However, the volume loss shows that there is no direct correlation with the Fe and C content. The volume loss of Cu-10%Fe-5%C was higher than the two samples which had the lowest hardness. On the hand, the volume loss of the Cu-30%Fe-15%C was slightly higher than Cu20%Fe-10%C as result of higher porosity and lower hardness. Wear mechanisms of abrasion, adhesion and thermal were observed to be operated during sliding process.

To explore the substantial cause of the early abnormal wear of micro-vehicle clutch’s friction material, the sample test aimed at studying the tribological properties of micro-vehicle clutch’s friction material is designed, according to GB/5763-98 national test standards. The broken line graph of samples’ friction coefficient on and wear rates in different working conditions are obtained. There are two types of working conditions. One is the same line speed and different working loads of samples, and the other is the same working load and different line speeds. Combined Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)’s observation with tribological principle, the sample test result is analyzed, thus obtaining the changing rules of the materials’ friction coefficient and wear rates at different temperatures, working loads and line speeds.

Sic Composites

Carbon fiber reinforced carbon-silicon carbide composites (C/C-SiC) were prepared by chemical volume infiltration (CVI) method and reaction melt infiltration (RMI) technique of silicon liquid to carbon reinforce carbon matrix composites. The friction and wear behaviors of C/C-SiC composites at various loads and sliding speeds were investigated by MRH-3 block-on-ring tribometer at room temperature under water lubricating conditions. Furthermore, the morphologies, phase of the worn surface and the debris were observed, examined and analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDAX) respectively. Experimental results showed that the C/C-SiC composites had a better wear resistence, and the friction coefficient under water lubricated conditions is about 0.02–0.06. The influence of sliding speed on the friction coefficients and the specific wear rate of C/C-SiC is more obvious than that of normal load when the load is less than 200N (inclueded200N). The friction coefficient and the specific wear rate of C/C-SiC decreased as the sliding velocity increased. At the sliding speed higher than 2m/s, the friction coefficient is less than 0.02. The specific wear rates is at a low level about (2×10−7mm3/Nm–5×10−8mm3/Nm).

High Graphite

Cu-based friction materials were prepared by powder metallurgy technology. The effect of the graphite on friction and wear properties of materials was investigated. The experimental results indicate that the wear rate of the materials increased with increasing speed. The wear rate of the materials with the graphite with the size of 300~600μm decreased with increasing graphite content, indicating that the graphite size of 300~600μm showed the good lubricating effect. The lubricating film made the friction coefficient decrease. The wear resistance of materials with 100~300μm graphite was degraded at high graphite content, and the graphite size of 100~300μm has bad effect on the strength of materials. The wear debris made the friction coefficient slightly increase with the increase of graphite content. The material with the graphite content of 10% and the graphite size of 300~600μm has the best friction and wear properties.
