Clutch lings comprising fiber-reinforced ceramic materials which comprise carbon fibers and whose matrix material is selected from among inorganic polymers, oxidic ceramics, set cements, organoelement polymers and finely divided inorganic solids which are held together by an inorganic or organic binders.

Clutch linings comprising fiber-reinforced ceramic materials

Clutch linings comprising fiber-reinforced ceramic materials which contain short carbon fibers and whose matrix has a mass fraction of at least 40% of silicon carbide, process for producing them and their use in clutch systems, in particular for motor vehicles.

In a friction pairing for clutch systems of two materials and processes for producing the pairing, one of the materials is a fiber-reinforced ceramic or metallic material A reinforced by carbon or ceramic fibers or whiskers. Material B acting against the material A in the friction pairing is selected from the group consisting of ceramic materials B11 and metallic materials B12, sintered metals B2, sintered oxidic ceramics B3, sintered nitridic ceramics B4, sintered carbidic ceramics B5 and organic sintered materials B6.
