Abstract
This research explored high-performance epoxy resin (EPR) for the first time as a binder in the formulation of brake pads to overcome the limitations of phenolic resins (short shelf life, harmful emissions, etc.) and compared them to phenolic pads to determine their potential. EPRs offered higher heat resistance, lower density, post-curing free, and longer shelf life. Brake pads (15%, 20%, and 25% epoxy, and 20 vol% phenolic) were assessed for physical, mechanical, thermal, tribological, and noise - vibration (NV) properties. The findings revealed promising tribological and NV performance for epoxy pads, suggesting EPR has the potential to replace phenolic resins in the friction industry.
期刊介绍：
Tribology is the science of rubbing surfaces and contributes to every facet of our everyday life, from live cell friction to engine lubrication and seismology. As such tribology is truly multidisciplinary and this extraordinary breadth of scientific interest is reflected in the scope of Tribology International.
Tribology International seeks to publish original research papers of the highest scientific quality to provide an archival resource for scientists from all backgrounds. Written contributions are invited reporting experimental and modelling studies both in established areas of tribology and emerging fields. Scientific topics include the physics or chemistry of tribo-surfaces, bio-tribology, surface engineering and materials, contact mechanics, nano-tribology, lubricants and hydrodynamic lubrication.
