SAMMANSATTA FRIKTIONSMATERIAL OCH FORFARANDE FOR FRAMSTELLNING DERAV

摘要

The present invention relates to composite friction assemblies and to methods of making the assemblies. The assemblies include at least one friction member and a support member. The friction member is formed from a mixture of thermosettable phenol-aldehyde resin and filler material under conditions less than those which would thermoset the resin component. The preformed friction member is joined to the support member by molding a mixture of phenol-aldehyde resin and filler material in a mold cavity which utilizes a face of the preformed friction member as a portion thereof. The molding conditions are such that the resin component of the members are commonly cured, or thermoset, to produce a composite friction assembly.
