Copper Substitution and Noise Reduction in Brake Pads: Graphite Type Selection

Copper Substitution and Noise Reduction in Brake Pads: Graphite Type Selection

Graphite is commonly used in brake pads. The use of graphite powder has the main goal of solid state lubrication and friction coefficient stabilization. In this article results on resin bonded brake pads with focus on noise performance and heat dissipation are presented. Experimental tests are based...
