Role of constituents of friction materials on their sliding behavior between room temperature and 400 °C KU Leuven
A brass-free and a brass-containing model friction material were investigated for their frictional behavior at temperatures increasing from room temperature (RT) up to 400 °C, and back. This research highlights the effect of some material constituents on the friction recorded under sliding against stainless steel at pre-selected and well characterized areas. Sliding specifically onto rock fibers increases friction in comparison to sliding onto ...
