Abstract

Choosing the amount of binder resin in a brake lining composition is important in terms of avoiding structural deterioration of the brake lining composite and resisting mechanical and thermal stresses at different temperatures. This study evaluated the performances of new brake lining composites with 15% and 20% novolac resin additives by performing wear tests in different temperature environments. Friction wear tests were performed according to ASTM G99 using pin-on-disc test devices at temperatures of 23 degrees C, 150 degrees C and 300 degrees C. The hardness and density of the samples increased by 2.4% and 3.7%, respectively, with the increase of the novolac resin ratio in the composition. In general, it was observed that the friction coefficient, thermal conductivity and vibration increased in parallel with the resin ratio. In addition, increasing the test temperature led to an increase in the friction coefficient.
