An Experimental Case Study on The Comparison of The Use of Micronized Quartz and Alumina in Brake Pads

One of the crucial components brake system is pads. Due to its importance in sector, researchers have carried out many recent studies on this subject. In study, two different pad samples were developed from alumina material and micronized quartz as friction modifiers. Samples containing 12% produced by hot molding method. The coefficient wear rates established tester order assess performance created samples. Density, hardness, microscopic analyses samples, which are other important parameters, performed with Scanning electron microscopy. average was 0.35 0.34 alumina. both obtained below maximum desired rate experiments values characteristics, it found that may be employed an alternative composition
