Use of friction materials for wet friction couples

摘要

Friction material contains silicon carbide, carbon/carbon-silicon carbide or carbon/silicon carbide reinforced with carbon fiber bundles. Pores partially interacting with each other are formed between the carbon fiber bundles and/or the carbon fibers. The friction material has a porosity of more than 8 volume %. An Independent claim is also included for a process for the production of a friction material.
