dc.description.abstract | Non-asbestos brake pads are a suitable alternative to asbestos-filled brake pads. The carcinogenic nature of asbestos necessitates this. Organic, non-asbestos brake pads were evaluated to attain their effectiveness at elevated temperatures of 250˚C, 260˚C and 270˚C. Using the Yates approach, asbestos-free (corn husk based) brake pads were subjected to a heating regime for 7s, 8s, and 9s. Microstructural examination, hardness and tensile tests were then carried out. The values obtained showed that approximately the overall hardness of the brake pad specimen did not change during use. This suggests that brake pads made using corn husks as filler for the given formulation maintain their microstructural and physical integrity at slightly elevated temperature | |
