Present Situation and Development Trend of Paper-based Friction Materials
1 Paper-based luminescent heating material
Paper can also be used to emit light and generate heat, such as fluorescent paper and electro-optical paper. If a kind of luminous paper with excellent performance can be developed, it may be able to replace electric lamps to increase brightness, greatly save the consumption of various energy sources, and facilitate people's daily life.
2. Paper-based friction material
Paper-based friction material appeared in the 1950s. It is a porous and highly elastic new friction material. Its components include fibers, binders, friction performance modifiers, fillers, etc. Its production process usually uses similar paper It is produced by craft technology, so it is called "paper base". Paper-based friction materials generally work in oil medium. As a new type of friction material, compared with other traditional friction materials, paper-based friction materials have a small ratio of static and dynamic friction coefficients, slow operation, low noise and very low environmental protection costs. Compared with traditional powder metallurgy copper-based friction materials, which have a large ratio of static and dynamic friction coefficients and loud vibrations, paper-based friction materials are more popular with manufacturers, so they are widely used. Paper-based friction materials are mainly used in the production of wet clutches and brakes in various vehicles and engineering machinery, machine tools, ships, mining machinery and other industries, typically as friction materials for wet clutches, and have very broad application prospects in various aspects.
3. Development trend of paper-based friction materials
With the rapid development of science and technology, paper-based functional materials have become the core of the field of new materials, which is of great significance to the national economy, civilization development and national construction. It includes bioengineering technology, energy development methods, nanotechnology, environmental protection technology, space technology, computer technology, marine engineering technology and other contemporary high-tech and related industries. The improvement of technology plays a major role in promoting the development of the era.
