Abstract
There are provided a friction material composition containing no copper or having a reduced content of copper that can provide a friction material in which the stability of the friction coefficient after standing in a cold environment, the abrasion resistance, and the low rust fixation properties are excellent, and squeal (particularly low temperature squeal) is suppressed, and a friction material obtained by molding the friction material composition, and a friction member using the friction material. The friction material composition is specifically a friction material composition comprising a bonding material, an organic filler, an inorganic filler, and a fiber substrate, in which the friction material composition comprises no copper, or has a content of copper of less than 0.5% by mass in terms of a copper element even if comprising the copper, and comprises, as the organic filler, cashew particles to which a silicone resin adheres.
