Global Friction Materials Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2024

Global Friction Materials Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2024

Research Summary

Friction materials are substances used in brakes, clutches, and other friction-based systems to convert kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction. These materials are crucial for controlling motion in various applications. Generally, friction materials consist of a mixture of ingredients like fibrous reinforcing materials (such as aramid, cellulose, or steel fibers), a binder (often phenolic resin), and friction modifiers (like graphite or metal powders). These components are mixed and compressed into a solid form, then bonded or riveted onto metal backing plates. The selection of friction materials depends on factors such as temperature range, friction coefficient, wear resistance, and durability, with different formulations optimized for specific applications, from automotive brakes to industrial clutches. Recent developments have focused on enhancing performance, reducing environmental impact, and improving safety through innovations like low-copper and asbestos-free formulations.
