Abstract
One exemplary aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method of forming a friction material. The method includes depositing a plurality of particles on a substrate such that the particles provide a plurality of projections and channels between adjacent projections. This disclosure also relates to the friction material itself, and a system including a mechanical component and the friction material.

A method of forming a friction material, comprising:
- depositing a plurality of particles on a substrate such that the particles provide a plurality of projections and channels between adjacent projections.
A friction material, comprising:
- a working layer provided by a plurality of particles, the working layer including a first section having a first surface finish and a first density, the working layer further including a second section having a second surface finish different than the first surface finish and a second density different than the first density.
A system, comprising:
- a mechanical component;
- a friction material connected to the mechanical component, the friction material comprising:
- a working layer provided by a plurality of particles, the working layer including a first section having a first surface finish and a first density, the working layer further including a second section having a second surface finish different than the first surface finish and a second density different than the first density.
