Ceramic Matrix Composites for Friction Applications
Thermostructural composite materials are manufactured from light and refractory components like carbon and silicon carbide, associated to get composites in which a refractory matrix is reinforced by high performance fibers. This chapter illustrates how these composites have proven their interest as constituents in systems for high performance friction‐based applications. Two main classes of ceramic matrix composite (CMC) materials are used for friction applications: (i) carbon/carbon composites, mainly used for aircraft braking systems and racing cars; and (ii) carbon/ceramic composites, more suitable for terrestrial applications (e.g., passenger cars, elevators). For both materials, carbon/carbon and carbon/ceramic, the manufactured quantities are constantly growing but still burdened with very high material costs compared to conventional metal/organic materials. Future developments comprise faster, automated processes for the manufacture and final machining as well as simpler geometries and novel designs of the still metal‐like pads and disks.
