TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed friction and wear testing of a commercial truck brake pad material against cast iron, and found that the continuity or discontinuity of sliding contact affects the size distribution of wear particles.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of various interfacial coatings designed to improve bonding of the matrix to the particles was studied, and a model of the wear of this pMMC material was presented, taking into account the various material parameters.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new brake pad produced using banana peel waste to replace asbestos and Phenolic resin (phenol formaldehyde), as a binder was investigated, and the results showed that compressive strength, hardness and specific gravity of the produced samples were seen to be increasing with an increase in wt% of resin addition, while oil soak, water soak, wear rate and percentage charred decreased as the wt % of resin increased.
Abstract: The use of asbestos fibre is being avoided due to its carcinogenic nature that might cause health risks. A new brake pad produced using banana peel waste to replace asbestos and Phenolic resin (phenol formaldehyde), as a binder was investigated. The resin was varying from 5 to 30 wt% with an interval of 5 wt%. Morphology, physical, mechanical and wear properties of the brake pad were studied. The results show that compressive strength, hardness and specific gravity of the produced samples were seen to be increasing with an increase in wt% of resin addition, while oil soak, water soak, wear rate and percentage charred decreased as the wt% of resin increased. Overall samples, containing 25 wt% in uncarbonized banana peels (BUNCp) and 30 wt% in carbonized (BCp) gave better properties. The result of this research indicates that banana peel particles can be effectively used as a replacement for asbestos in brake pad manufacture.

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that not only material properties, but also the concentration of solid lubricant particles in the friction layers, determine conditions for friction force stabilization and smooth sliding behaviour.

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of four different non-commercial brake pad materials (NF1, NF2, NF4, and NF5) were evaluated and compared with other two chosen commercial brake pad material (CMA and CMB) using a small-scale tribo-tester of pad-on-disc type.
