Friction body of silicon-infiltrated, carbon fiber-reinforced porous carbon and method for making same

摘要

A friction body of porous carbon, which is infiltrated with silicon and reinforced with carbon fibers, includes at least one separate friction layer on a core body. In order to protect the friction layer against damage by outbreaking, carbon fibers in the friction layer are shorter than carbon fibers of the core body. Accordingly, different possibilities for producing a friction body with short fibers in the friction layer are possible.
