The manufacturing process of brake materials used for braking applications consists of a succession of steps among which the hot molding has a major impact on properties and performance of materials. In this paper, impact of hot molding temperature and duration on mechanical and thermal properties of friction materials developed with simplified formulation was investigated. Two different hot molding conditions were studied: condition 1 (low temperature associated to long duration) and condition 2 (high temperature associated to short duration). Braking behavior, thermo-mechanical phenomena and wear and friction mechanisms were also investigated. Results indicated that hot molding conditions did not significantly affect mechanical properties and tribological behavior, but they had impact on thermal properties (material molded according to condition 1, material A presented a higher thermal conductivity) and on wear mechanisms involved in the contact. In addition, results revealed that the studied hot molding conditions impacted thermal localization recorded during braking that was denser for the disc rubbed against material B (material molded according to condition 2).

Purpose Previous publications were mainly focused on the effect of textures under lubrication. Under dry sliding, area ratio of surface texturing (pit area ratio) and diameter of pit affect the tribological behavior. This paper aims to investigate the effect of laser surface texturing on tribological behavior of nodular cast iron under dry sliding. Design/methodology/approach Pit-like textures with different diameters and spaces were fabricated by laser on nodular cast iron (QT600-3). Using nodular cast iron (QT600-3) as the disc specimen and resin matrix composites (UCV018) as the pad specimen, the tribological test was performed with pin-on-disk reciprocating tribo-tester. Findings The coefficient of friction (COF) of the non-textured specimen was larger than that of the textured one. For the same pit diameter, a larger pit area ratio induced a slight decrease of COF, while wear volume decreased significantly. The pit diameter induced a slight decrease of COF as the pit area ratio, but its effect was weaker. Practical implications The experimental studies will help to improve the brake system such as structure modeling of brake disc. Predicting the performance and life of the brake disc in vehicle based on tribological behavior checked in test, it was proved that pit-like texture had application value in vehicle brake system. Originality/value This paper showed that the effect of pit area ratio on friction and wear was greater than that of pit diameter. The experimental results will be useful to the design on safety brake disc.

The work in this study is focused on investigation of the tribological behavior of ductile cast iron with nanosized particles: titanium nitride TiN; titanium nitride 30% + titanium carbonitride 70% (30%TiN+70%TiCN). The ductile cast iron composition is: Fe-3,55C-2,67Si-0,31Mn-0,009S-0,027P-0,040Cu-0,025Cr-0,08Ni-0,06Mg wt%. Before the addition to the melt nanosized particles were coated with nickel by the electroless nickel deposition method EFFTOMNICKEL .The nickel coating on the nanosized particles ensures their wetting in the melt as well as their uniform distribution into the cast. The optical and quantity metallographic observations and wear test are performed to study the influence of the nanoparticle additives on the cast iron tribological properties. It is observed that the quantity proportion changes between pearlite, ferrite and graphite phase in the cast iron structure. The graphite shape is retained the same, but the nanosized additives decrease the average diameter of the graphite spheres Dmid and increase the quantity of the graphite phase in the structure of ductile cast irons. The cast iron wear resistance in the presence of nanosized additives of (TiN+TiCN) and TiN increases to 55–69% in comparison to wear resistance of the cast iron without nanoparticles.

Friction materials are composed of numerous ingredients which differ from nature and particles size. Each ingredient has its own impact on the mechanical and tribological behavior of the material. Brass ingredients have a great impact on the thermal gradient dissipation in the sliding contact between disc and brake pad material. In this research, the influence of different sizes and forms of brass ingredient was studied on the friction material behavior. The physical (density), mechanical (yield strength, young module) and thermal (thermal conductivity and specific heat) properties of the considered composites were characterized. Results proves that only physical and mechanical properties are sensitive to the changes in size and form of brass particles. The tribological behavior of the brake friction materials was also assessed using a pin-on-disc tribometer. The results show that bigger brass particles and their elongated shape allows it to be well embedded on the pad surface during braking application, and thus decreased wear rate . In contrast, the smaller particle decrease the friction stability and it rounded shape increase wear of the material since it tearing from the surface by abrasive wear.
