The invention relates to a preparation method of a
powder metallurgy friction material, and belongs to the technical field of material
processing. The invention is formed in the manner that
copper andiron serve as matrix components,
chromium and
ferrochrome powder serve as friction components,
graphite and silica serve as lubricating components, and three kinds of
fiber materials are used for
hybrid reinforcing; the three kinds of
fiber materials have complementary advantages and can improve the high
temperature resistance and
abrasive resistance of the friction materials; in the
sintering process, as the temperature gradually increases, glass fibers gradually become molten and are adhered to a
ceramic fiber mesh and a
boron fiber mesh, and the three kinds of fiber materials are mixed inthe friction material to form a three-dimensional
network structure, and therefore the
impact force borne by the friction material can be dispersed and reduced, the mechanical properties of the friction material can be improved, and the
friction coefficient is more stable; and since the
ceramic fibers have the characteristic of the small
specific heat, the rising rate of the temperature of the friction material during braking is reduced, the
volume change caused by rapid increase of temperature is avoided, and the stability of the friction material is further improved.
