Implementation of regulatory standards has reduced exhaust emissions of particulate matter
from road traffic substantially in the developed world. However, nonexhaust particle …

Brake friction materials play an important role in automobiles to reduce speed and to stop
the vehicles. Advances in friction materials were updated to ensure effective performances …

Tires, bitumen, and road markings are important sources of traffic-derived carbonaceous
wear particles and microplastic (MP) pollution. In this study, we further developed a machine …

Friction materials have played a crucial role in safe movement of automobiles and in
protection of human life. Enormous cost has incurred in validation of new developed brake …

Recent advancements in brake pad applications emphasise various friction compositions
that exclude toxic components such as asbestos, copper etc, in order to provide superior …

In this paper, an investigation of the load-dependent wear behavior of copper-free semi-
metallic brake material is presented. The experiments were conducted in ambient thermal …

The use of asbestos in brake pads is being eliminated due to its carcinogenic effect. Due to
this, there is a need for better alternative in the brake pad material to replace asbestos fibers …

Purpose This study aims to compare the influence of different solid lubricants on the friction
stability of a non-asbestos disc brake pad. Design/methodology/approach Three brake pads …

Friction materials play a crucial role in the safe movement of automobiles and the protection
of human life. As the pad slides against its mating partner, the kinetic energy is transferred …

In this work, eco‐friendly brake friction composites were developed using walnut shell
powder‐fly ash‐white ark shell powder (agro‐industrial‐sea waste). The waste materials …
