Abstract:
Carbon black is a raw material largely used as a friction modifier in brakes and clutch linings. Its basic properties provide thermal conductivity that helps dissipate the heat generated in braking applications.
Carbon black also reinforces friction materials, helping to keep their integrity and thus increasing their usage life.
Carbon Black Benefits:
■ Friction Stability,
■ Heat Dissipation,
■ Uniform Color,
■ Increased Wear Resistance (increases life of the friction material),
■ Improved Noise Reduction (increases internal porosity of friction material).
