Abstract
A friction material comprises a base and a friction generating layer penetrating into and integral with the base. The base presents a bonding surface. The friction generating layer presents a friction generating surface facing opposite the bonding surface of the base. The friction generating layer comprises fibrillated nanofibers, friction adjusting particles, and elastomeric particles. A curable resin is dispersed throughout the friction generating layer and the base of the friction material.
