Abstract
Three iron-based powder metallurgy friction materials with different Cu content were prepared by powder metallurgy. The friction and wear properties of the materials were evaluated by the MM3000 friction and wear tester, and the effect of Cu content on the friction coefficient, wear rate and surface morphology was studied. The results show that with the increase of copper content, the matrix components are alloyed at high temperature, and the hardness and strength are significantly improved. The coefficient of dynamic friction and wear rate decreased significantly, and the coefficient of static friction and friction stability increased at high temperature. When the copper content is low, abrasive wear, spalling wear and fatigue wear are the main causes, while when the copper content is high, only slight abrasive wear occurs.
