Our study focuses on not only how the physical properties of pad matrix strength and porosity depend on the titanates' crystal structure and shape, but also on the chemical properties of the titanates themselves. As a result, it has been found that the reaction that occurs on the friction surface containing titanate and phenolic resin has an influence on the tribological performance of brakes. Our conclusion remains that titanates affect the thermal-reaction of phenolic resins [4] [5]. This study analyzes just what materials are generated by the thermal reaction of the phenolic resin in detail by studying samples with or without Titanate. The results show that the phenomenon of the generation of the char, which has its roots in the decomposition of the phenolic resins, is different between the samples with titanate, and without titanate. Along with pyrolysis products such as phenol monomer and dimer, char is commonly generated during the decomposition of phenolic resins.
