Abstract

A friction material suitable for brake linings comprises asbestos, vulcanized rubber, and kaolin as a filler. The material may, for example, contain: Asbestos fibre (45 per cent), magnesium oxide (3,6 per cent), rubber (18 per cent), sulphur (9 per cent), graphite (6 per cent), litharge (6 per cent), iron oxide (3 per cent), kaolin (9,1 per cent). The sulphur combines with the rubber to cure it, the litharge and magnesium oxide accelerate the curing, the kaolin is a reinforcing agent and filler and has a low coefficient of friction, the iron oxide acts to age the composition. In one process of manufacture, an equal weight of solvent such as naphthol or benzol is added to the rubber and the other ingredients are added to the softened rubber in a mixing machine. The mixture is then extruded through a nozzle having roughly the desired size of the brake lining on to a conveyer belt enclosed in a hood through which a current of warm air is drawn to effect partial drying. The extruder nozzle has a perforated plate whereby the asbestos fibres are roughly aligned in the length of the strip. The strip is passed between rollers one of which has projections to perforate the strip to facilitate the subsequent further drying operation effected in a vacuum oven. The strip is then passed through calender rolls to roughly form the material, cut into exact brake shoe length, placed in a flat mould and subjected to pressure and a temperature of about 300 DEG F. The strips are finally cured and curved by attaching to a drum placed in an oven at 350 DEG F. and finished off to exact dimensions by grinding operations. According to a dry process, the rubber and sulphur are first mixed cold in a machine of the Banbury type, the asbestos and other ingredients being then added and mixed and heated to render the rubber plastic. The subsequent operations starting with that of subjecting the material to pressure and heat in flat moulds is the same as in the wet process. The iron oxide litharge and magnesium oxide may be omitted. To reduce the time of the drying operation, the material may be extruded in a very thin strip, a number of thicknesses being placed in the flat mould.
