Abstract

A friction paper including filler, para-aramid pulp, and resin, characterised in that the para-aramid pulp includes 0.1 to 10 wt. % of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), the paper having a grammage in the range of 100 to 800 g/m2. It has been found that the use of a PVP-containing para-aramid pulp leads to improved friction performance as compared to the use of para-aramid pulp not containing PVP. Effects obtained include improved friction properties, improved strength properties, and improved filler retention.
