The invention discloses a
copper-free
ceramic friction material with little falling ash and a preparation method thereof. The
copper-free
ceramic friction material with little falling ash is prepared by mixing, shaping and thermally
processing the following raw materials in percentage by weight: 5 to 14 percent of
adhesive, 20 to 45 percent of reinforcing material, 10 to 40 percent of
ceramic material, 10 to 18 percent of
lubricant and the balance of filler, wherein
nitrile rubber modified phenolic resin and
nitrile rubber
powder are used as the
adhesive; the reinforcing material is one or a mixture of more of
aramid fiber, carbon
fiber, steel
fiber, foam
iron powder and aluminum
oxide fiber; the ceramic material is one or a combination of more of
molybdenum disulfide,
magnesium oxide andferrous disulphide; the
lubricant is the mixture of
graphite and
mica; and the filler is the mixture of composite filler, barite, friction
powder and aluminum
powder. The material has high friction performance, low
brake noise and
high heat fading resistance, and particularly shows high performance in aspects of
wear resistance, long life and great reduction in the falling ash of a wheel hub; therefore, the material can meet both the requirement of a modern automobile
braking system on operating conditions and the requirement on economy and environment friendliness when an automobile is used.
