Friction Dust FRD-20 is used as an additive in manufacturing of Friction Material (Automotive & Industrial) like Brake Linings, Disk Brake Pads, Railway Brake Blocks and Clutch Facings, etc to stabilize the friction level. Friction Dust FRD-20 is crossed linked product obtained from the reaction of Cashew Nut Shell Liquid with different aldehyde donors like Formaldehyde / Hexamine / Para Formaldehyde to achieve the desired Friction dust properties. Basically it is a phenol formaldehyde resin, which is polymerized and reacted with any one of the aldehyde donors and made to powder form of various standard mesh sizes.
