Abstract
Cu-free resin-based brake material filled with waste foundry resin-bonded sand (waste sand) was prepared using the hot-pressing method. The changes in the physical and chemical properties of Cu and waste sand during braking were investigated, and their role in resin-based composites was discussed. The effects of the content of waste sand on the hardness, impact strength, indentation hardness, elastic modulus, friction coefficient, wear rate, micro-scratch friction coefficient, scratch depth, residual depth, and wear mechanism of resin-based brake material were investigated. Cu-contained composites generate Cu2O when braking at high temperatures, which adversely affects the friction and wear properties. Compared to Cu, waste sand was found to be more favorable for the overall friction and wear properties of resin-based composites. This suggests that waste sand can be used as a substitute for Cu in brake material. Waste sand is beneficial for improving the friction coefficient and stability of brake material through the formation of a friction layer. This layer can significantly impact the wear mechanism of brake material, particularly at high temperature (250–350 ℃). The brake material with 10–15% waste sand indicates excellent heat-fade resistance.
