Product catalog summary
Introduction
Twaron pulp is a high-quality additive used in friction materials to enhance the performance of brake pads, linings, and clutch facings. It is known for prolonging product lifetimes and increasing driver comfort by reducing noise, vibrations, and harshness (NVH).
Key Benefits
  • Reduced noise, judder, and vibrations
  • Lower wear
  • Polishing effect
  • Less corrosion
  • Improved strength and stability of edges
  • Prevents cracks forming in pads
High-Quality Additive
Twaron pulp is essential in friction formulations due to its high thermal stability, which is crucial as brake dimensions decrease and more heat is generated. It does not melt or shrink, making it a reliable component in high-performance friction materials.
Applications
Twaron is used in a wide range of applications, including private cars, buses, commercial vehicles, heavy goods vehicles, trains, trams, subways, motorbikes, bicycles, and industrial systems like elevators and cranes. It improves strength, wear resistance, and noise reduction.
Key Ingredient
Twaron para-aramid fibers are a critical component in modern friction materials, available in various forms such as pulp, short cut, and staple fiber, providing a competitive advantage in formulations.
Manufacturing Advantages
Twaron pulp offers high bulk volume and excellent filler retaining properties, creating a stable matrix and preventing segregation. It also has superior dust-binding properties, making manufacturing easier.

Teijin Aramid friction leaflet-1

The sound of silence Meeting market demand Twaron pulp improves the performance of brake pads and linings as well as clutch facings, prolongs product lifetimes, and increases driver comfort. In terms of comfort in particular Twaron pulp makes a major contribution to reducing noise, vibrations and harshness (NVH). It’s these unique properties that make Twaron pulp the material of choice for friction manufacturers around the globe. As brake dimensions are getting smaller, the performance of the materials used needs to be further enhanced – another strong argument for using Twaron. At Teijin Aramid we’re continually developing advanced solutions that will meet both today’s and tomorrow’s needs. Key benefits when using Twaron • Reduced noise, judder and vibrations • Lower wear • Polishing effect • Less corrosion • Improved strength • Improved stability of edges • Prevents cracks forming in pads
