Tribological investigations of hemp reinforced NAO brake friction polymer composites with varying percentage of resin loading

NAO brake friction materials with 4%, 5%, and 6% (w/v) sodium hydroxide treated hemp fiber reinforcement having 25% wt. fiber loading and fixed percentage of phenol formaldehyde resin content (20% wt.) along with other fillers have been studied and reported by the authors earlier. However, the effec...

description NAO brake friction materials with 4%, 5%, and 6% (w/v) sodium hydroxide treated hemp fiber reinforcement having 25% wt. fiber loading and fixed percentage of phenol formaldehyde resin content (20% wt.) along with other fillers have been studied and reported by the authors earlier. However, the effect of variations in the resin content on the tribological performance has been studied and reported in the present paper. Five variants were prepared with varying percentages of phenol formaldehyde resin from 12% wt. to 22% wt. with incremental steps of 2% wt, along with the optimum of 6% (w/v) sodium hydroxide treated hemp fibers and other fillers. The prepared test variants’ tribological characterization was done using Taguchi’s L25 orthogonal array on a pin-on-disc experimental setup, as per ASTM G99, at room temperature and compared with the best of the earlier studied friction composite. Fade and recovery tests of the best of the earlier studied and present ones were performed on a chase tribology tester per SAE J661 standards. The results revealed moderate coefficient of friction of 0.4496, lower wear rate of 0.57 gm, and better fade recovery for the HF25P20 variant compared to its counterparts studied here.
