Abstract
The series of abrasion runs conducted indicated several trends in rubber abrasion or wear in tests conducted under conditions representative of ACLS braking. Major effects were found for variations in filler level and experimental or abrasion conditions. Optimum filler (SAF) level was found to be between 55 and 65 phr in Butyl-HT. Beneficial effects in terms of reducing rubber adhesion to the braking surface were provided by steel fibers and by talc at 2-8 phr. Rubber abrasion mechanism was found to be predominantly mechanical. The rate of wear, however, was strongly affected by heating at the abrasion interface.Keywords
