Exploration! Remarkable properties of today's friction materials

Mar 18, 2025

Brake pad friction materials after years of development and survival of the fittest, the existing friction materials in the formula and production testing equipment have made a qualitative leap, the main changes in which areas?

 

1. Advanced formulations. Through years of exploration, what are the characteristics of the existing formula:

 

① Asbestos-free in line with environmental requirements.

 

② no or less metal and the use of porous materials can reduce the density of the friction plate, which is conducive to reducing damage to the brake disc and reduce the degree of noise generated.

 

③ Reducing the use of chemical fibers and natural fibers can significantly reduce the cost of raw materials for friction pads and reduce the degree of thermal degradation of friction materials.

 

④ Reducing the resin content is conducive to reducing the occurrence of thermal decay, reducing the occurrence of blistering and swelling of friction discs, and reducing costs.

 

⑤ The shortening of hot pressing time can greatly improve the production efficiency of the hot press.

 

 

 

2. Adopting automatic dosing system, compared with manual dosing, the automatic dosing system can control the dosage by computer, which can better control the proportion and avoid the error.

 

 

3. Characteristics of hot press process and tooling

 

4.Friction performance test of products

 

5. Research on the compressibility of friction plate
