Abstract

Abstract An asbestos-based paper or board material has a fibrous component which includes from 0.8 to 25% by weight of amosite asbestos and 6 to 96% by weight of chrysotile asbestos, based on the total weight of the material, and is particularly useful for the manufacture of friction materials comprising from 20 to 40% by weight of a bonding agent and from 60 to 80% by weight of the asbestos-based paper or board material. The paper may additionally comprise organic fibre and inorganic filler other than asbestos.
