Performance assessment of aluminum chips in reduced-scale friction for developing copper-free elastomer-modified friction composites
Prosenjit Ghosh
Abstract:This research paper investigates the frictional and thermomechanical properties of a copper (Cu) free non-asbestos organic (NAO) composite for developing brake friction material for automotive/railway applications. Reduced-scale brake composites were manufactured and tested in a pin on disc tribometer. The effect of aluminum (Al) chips on the dry sliding wear behavior of acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) modified phenolic resin-based reduced-scale friction composites was investigated. Other common ingredien… Show more
