Core Applications of Phenolic Resin in Brake Pads
Building a stable and reliable bonding and molding foundation
Forming a high-temperature-resistant and wear-resistant structural framework
Ensuring thermal stability and safety during braking processes
Supporting a comprehensive balance of friction performance, noise control, and service life
Phenolic resin is an indispensable core bonding material in brake pad manufacturing. Through hot-press molding and curing reactions, it forms a stable and continuous resin matrix among various fibers, friction materials, and fillers. Phenolic resin not only provides brake pads with excellent mechanical strength and structural integrity, but also maintains stable performance under high-load braking conditions due to its outstanding high-temperature carbonization characteristics. It plays a critical role in supporting friction material systems, suppressing brake fade, improving wear behavior, and reducing noise, ultimately ensuring safe, reliable, and long-lasting braking performance.
