Abstract:The paper deals with special-purpose friction materials for the contact «wheel-rail», designed to improve the adhesion of the locomotive wheels with the rails, reducing the resistance to the movement of the impact on the track, increasing the rolling stock wheels and rails resource. The authors used the generalized world and native experience in the application of existing and developed devices designed for the activators and modifiers applying in the contact zone «wheel-rail», as well as test results.
