r0-sleek is a Recycled Mild Abrasive (RMA) from RIMSA. This low-cost additive is comprised of refined fused inorganic oxides, which are obtained as a by-product of the steel-making process. Unlike traditional steel slags, which can have variable compositions, r0-sleek B ensures a consistent chemical composition and predictable performance. Its formulation has been optimized to allow for a tailored balance, maximizing friction performance while maintaining wear within acceptable parameters. r0-sleek is a sustainable solution that effectively increases the friction coefficient, especially at high temperatures, thereby providing superior stopping power for demanding applications. It’s available in several grades.
Benefits:
- Increases friction coefficient, especially at high temperatures.
- Provides superior stopping power for demanding applications.
- Ensures consistent chemical composition and predictable performance.
- Allows for formula optimization to maximize friction performance while maintaining wear within acceptable parameters.
- Sustainable and cost-effective solution.
Applications:
- Enhances friction coefficient in friction material formulations, such as brake pads.
- Suitable for applications demanding superior braking performance at high temperatures.
- Used in formula optimization to achieve a tailored balance between friction and wear.
