Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of sintering temperature variations on the hardness and density of brake pad composites fabricated using the powder metallurgy method. The fabrication process consisted of material preparation, powder mixing, cold compaction, and sintering with the weight fraction of matrix and filler wt.% being 40/60, 48/52, and 56/44 wt.%. Powder mixing was carried out using a horizontal ball mill with a ball-to-powder weight ratio (BPR) of 10:1, a rotational speed of 90 rpm, and a milling time of 4 hours. Cold compaction was performed uniaxially at a pressure of 5300 PSI for 10 minutes, followed by sintering at temperatures of 50°C, 60°C, and 70°C for 10 minutes. Density testing was conducted based on Archimedes’ principle in accordance with ASTM B962-17, while hardness was measured using a portable Brinell hardness tester following ASTM E110-14. The highest hardness value of 103.0 HB was obtained at 48% matrix composition with a sintering temperature of 60°C, while the highest density of 1.453 g/cm³ was achieved at 40% matrix composition with a sintering temperature of 70°C. These findings demonstrate that sintering temperature has a significant influence on the mechanical and physical properties of the brake pad composite.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to optimize the heat treatment process of S55C medium-carbon steel by examining the combined effects of austenitizing temperature, quenching media, and tempering temperature on impact toughness. Methodology: An experimental approach was employed using quenching and tempering treatments. Quenching was performed at three austenitizing temperatures (950°C, 1000°C, and 1050°C) with three different cooling media—salt water, oil, and seawater—followed by tempering at 100°C, 200°C, 300°C, and 400°C. All heating processes were conducted in an electric furnace. Parameter optimization was carried out using the Taguchi method with an L9 orthogonal array. Mechanical performance was evaluated through Charpy impact testing, and confirmation experiments were conducted to validate the optimal parameter combination. Main Findings: The Taguchi analysis identified the optimal quenching condition at an austenitizing temperature of 1050°C with salt water as the cooling medium, yielding the highest impact toughness. Confirmation tests supported the reliability of this result. Additionally, the tempering process showed that increasing the tempering temperature decreased hardness while significantly improving toughness, indicating effective stress relief and improved ductility in the steel microstructure. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this study lies in the integrated optimization of quenching temperature and diverse cooling media, including seawater, using the Taguchi method, with a specific focus on toughness rather than hardness alone. This research provides new insights into tailoring heat treatment parameters for S55C steel to achieve superior impact resistance, offering practical guidance for more efficient and application-oriented heat treatment strategies in manufacturing industries.
