Abstract
A method for forming a friction material includes mixing a fibrous base material and filler particles to form a substrate; saturating the substrate with a silane solution including a silane to form a uniformly impregnated silane matrix; curing the uniformly impregnated silane matrix to form a cured uniformly impregnated silane matrix; saturating the cured uniformly impregnated silane matrix with a non-silane binder solution to form a uniformly impregnated silane, non-silane matrix; and curing the uniformly impregnated silane, phenolic resin matrix to form the friction material.
