Abstract
Asbestos-free friction material compositions containing from about 20 to 45% by volume of the material of a thermoset binder of a phenol formaldehyde resin and optionally a heat and chemical reistant rubber, up to 10% by volume of an inert mineral filler and as the sole fibrous reinforcement 5 to 15% by volume of short lengths of steel fibers are disclosed. The compositions are useful as brake pads and the like and has properties comparable with asbestos-based materials.
