Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of the preparation of copper-based powder metallurgy brake pads, and particularly relates to a copper-based powder metallurgy brake pad containing multiple ceramic components and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The braking system is a key system for the safety guarantee and emergency of transportation tools. The basic braking composed of the friction pair material plays a decisive role in the braking system. It can be said that without a safe and reliable friction pair material for the braking system, it is impossible to achieve the high-speed operation of transportation tools.

[0003] Most of the braking systems used in high-speed trains currently adopt disc braking devices. The friction pair is composed of a brake disc and a brake pad, and the deceleration or stopping is achieved by using the frictional force generated between the two. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop high-temperature-resistant, low-wear and high-performance brake pads.

[0004] Chinese Patent Document CN114542632A discloses a high-speed train brake pad applying a composite wear-resistant material and a preparation method thereof. The used composite wear-resistant material is composed of metal powder and inorganic non-metallic powder. This method improves the wear resistance and strength of the high-speed train brake pad.

[0005] Chinese Patent Document CN102102720B discloses a ceramic / metal double continuous phase composite material brake pad, which relates to silicon carbide foam ceramics. The produced brake pad can cooperate with the brake disc, has a suitable and stable friction coefficient, low manufacturing cost and long service life.

[0006] Chinese Patent Document CN113550993B discloses a reinforced high-speed train brake pad material and a preparation method thereof. The strengthening component used is MoAl-Si-B powder to prepare a brake pad with a relatively high friction coefficient, low wear amount and small damage to the brake disc.

[0007] As can be seen from the above, due to its excellent properties such as high strength, stable chemical properties, excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, ceramic powder plays a very good role in stabilizing the friction performance at high temperatures. However, so far, there are few reports on using the double ceramic powders B4C-TiC in combination with hexagonal boron nitride powder and a metal matrix to improve the friction stability and heat resistance of brake pads. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Based on improving the heat resistance of copper-based powder metallurgy brake pads, the present invention uses the characteristic parameters of various reinforcing phases to synergistically enhance, gives full play to the advantages and coupling effects of each component, and obtains a copper-based composite material with excellent comprehensive performance. The present invention makes a first attempt to use the double ceramic powders B4C-TiC in combination with hexagonal boron nitride powder and a metal matrix to improve the friction stability and heat resistance of brake pads.

[0009] The copper-based powder metallurgy brake pad of the present invention containing multiple ceramic components, the raw materials used include, by mass percentage:

[0010] Electrolytic copper powder 50 - 60%, preferably 52 - 58%;

[0011] Reduced iron powder 10 - 18%, preferably 14 - 16%;

[0012] Electrolytic nickel powder 2 - 4%, preferably 2 - 3%;

[0013] Atomized tin powder 2 - 4%, preferably 2 - 2.5%;

[0014] Tungsten powder 2 - 5%, preferably 2 - 4%, further preferably 2%;

[0015] Natural flaky graphite powder 8 - 14%, preferably 10 - 14%, further preferably 10%;

[0016] Hexagonal boron nitride powder 2 - 4%, preferably 2%;

[0017] Boron carbide powder 2 - 6%, preferably 2 - 4%;

[0018] Titanium carbide powder 2 - 6%, preferably 5 - 6%.

[0019] As a further preferred scheme; when the components are within the defined range, when the content of boron carbide powder is 3% and the content of titanium carbide powder is 5%, the friction stability of the product will be further improved.

[0020] As an even more preferred scheme: electrolytic copper powder 58%, reduced iron powder 16%, electrolytic nickel 2%, atomized tin powder 2%, tungsten powder 2%, natural flaky graphite powder 10%, hexagonal boron nitride powder 2%, boron carbide powder 3%, titanium carbide powder 5%.

[0021] Compared with the existing copper-based powder metallurgy friction materials reinforced with a single ceramic powder, the present invention utilizes the characteristic parameters of boron carbide, titanium carbide, and hexagonal boron nitride to synergistically enhance, giving full play to the advantages and coupling effects of the three components. During the braking process, boron carbide powder will form a boron oxide ceramic film on the friction surface, improving the stability of friction performance at high temperatures. Titanium carbide powder will adhere to the copper matrix, reducing the loss of the matrix and increasing wear resistance. The synergistic effect of the two ceramic powders enables the copper-based powder metallurgy brake pad to have both good high-temperature resistance and less wear. When an appropriate amount of boron carbide powder and titanium carbide powder are combined with hexagonal boron nitride powder and the metal matrix, a direct mixing method can be used to prepare a copper-based powder metallurgy friction material with relatively excellent performance. Of course, if the prepared ceramic powders (such as hexagonal boron nitride powder, boron carbide powder, titanium carbide powder) are first subjected to high-energy ball milling, the performance of the product will be further improved.

[0022] The electrolytic copper powder is the matrix component, serving as the main body to bear the load and conduct heat, and being the main channel for the dissipation of frictional heat. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0023] The reduced iron powder is the matrix strengthening component, with low solubility and good wettability. As the second phase in the copper powder, it makes the friction and wear performance of the material better. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0024] The electrolytic nickel powder is the matrix strengthening component, which is infinitely soluble in the copper matrix and can increase the melting point and high-temperature strength of the matrix. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0025] The atomized tin powder is the matrix strengthening component, which will generate an instantaneous liquid phase during the sintering process, promoting the densification of sintering. The particle size is not higher than 60 - 80 microns.

[0026] The tungsten powder is the matrix strengthening component, which can increase the specific heat capacity of the matrix and ensure excellent thermal conductivity. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0027] The natural flaky graphite powder is the matrix lubricating component, used to eliminate jamming, reduce noise, adjust the friction coefficient, and reduce the wear of the brake disc. The particle size is 150 - 200 microns.

[0028] The hexagonal boron nitride powder is the matrix lubricating component, which improves the high-temperature friction stability. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0029] The boron carbide powder is the matrix friction component, which can prevent the matrix from losing as micro-protrusions at high temperatures and increase the wear resistance. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0030] The titanium carbide powder is the matrix friction component, which adjusts the friction factor, eliminates the adhesion deposits and oxides on the surface of the brake disc to improve the high-temperature friction stability. The particle size is 60 - 80 microns.

[0031] A preparation method of a copper-based powder metallurgy brake pad containing multiple ceramic components according to the present invention includes the following steps:

Use H2 and N2 as the full - process protective atmosphere; obtain a copper - based powder metallurgy brake pad containing multiple ceramic components.

[0040] When applied industrially, the prepared hexagonal boron nitride powder, boron carbide powder, and titanium carbide powder can be first placed in a high - energy ball mill, add 50 ml of ethanol, and adopt a ball - to - material ratio of 50 - 100:1, preferably 50:1. Control the rotation speed at 350 - 450 r / min, preferably 400 - 450:1. The ball - milling time is 10 - 50 hours, preferably 40 - 55 hours. The composite ceramic powder after high - energy ball milling is not only well - mixed, but also has a small particle size and high activity, which is beneficial to the densification of the green body sintering.

[0041] Conduct surface pretreatment on the required steel back, shot - peen and polish it smoothly, then clean and dry it; Measure its surface roughness to be 0.8 - 1.6.

[0042] When sintering and forming, the protective gas used is composed of H2 and N2 in a volume ratio of 1 - 2:1 - 2.

[0047] Beneficial effects

[0048] In terms of material design of the present invention, electrolytic copper powder is used as the matrix component, which serves as the main body for bearing loads and heat conduction and is the main channel for frictional heat dissipation. Reduced iron powder is introduced as the second phase to enhance the friction and wear performance of the material. Electrolytic nickel powder is introduced to infinitely solid - solve with the copper matrix to increase the melting point and high - temperature strength of the matrix. Atomized tin powder and tungsten powder are introduced to promote sintering densification and increase the specific heat capacity of the matrix. Appropriate amounts of natural flaky graphite powder and hexagonal boron nitride powder are introduced to adjust the friction coefficient and improve high - temperature friction stability. Appropriate amounts of boron carbide powder and titanium carbide powder are introduced to synergistically enhance the high - temperature resistance and friction stability of the copper - based powder metallurgy brake pad. Among them, boron carbide improves the stability of frictional performance at high temperatures by generating a boron oxide ceramic film on the friction surface. Titanium carbide powder adheres to the copper matrix, reducing the loss of the matrix and increasing wear resistance. The increase in the content of ceramic powder in the copper - based powder metallurgy brake pad is beneficial to the improvement of high - temperature friction stability, and the optimization of the introduction ratio of boron carbide powder and titanium carbide powder also increases the friction stability of the brake pad.

[0049] When the copper - based powder metallurgy brake pad provided by the present invention acts on a carbon - ceramic brake disc, not only is the wear low, but also the high - temperature friction stability is good. There are no defects in both the brake pad itself and the brake disc, and the matching is good. The brake pad with a high content and suitable ratio of ceramic powder introduced (3% boron carbide - 5% titanium carbide - 2% hexagonal boron nitride) has both good high - temperature friction stability and mechanical strength, and also maintains less wear. At the same time, the brake pad does not use asbestos, lead and their compounds. Description of the drawings
