“…A better wear rate is also influenced by the proportion of materials and the right bonding properties. The strong adhesion of natural fibers with resin provides good wear resistance for composites [ 45 , 49 , 50 , 51 ]. In addition, reducing the level of wear on the brake pads can be done by reducing the particle size of the filler because smaller particle size will increase the bond between the binder and the filler [ 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 ].…”

The braking system is a crucial element in automotive safety. In order for the braking mechanism to function effectively, the brake pads’ durability as well as quality are crucial aspects to take into account. A brake pad is a part of a vehicle that holds the wheel rotation so that braking can occur. Asbestos, which is harmful to human health, is a raw material that is recently being widely used as a material mixture for the manufacturing of brake pads. Many efforts have been made by researchers to find other natural alternative materials to replace the use of asbestos. Natural materials that have received much attention and research include coconut fiber, wood powder or flour, bamboo fiber, shell powder, etc. This review paper focuses on analyzing the main parameters that affect brake pad performance. The composition of filler and fiber types of reinforcement for polymer composites is discussed. Previous studies’ information on the fabrication and testing of brake pads are also highlighted. Furthermore, the findings of this review can provide researchers and academicians with useful information and points to consider for further research.

“…Results indicated that the sample with 10% agro waste had high tensile and flexural strength. From a tribological standpoint, a higher friction coefficient was obtained adding 5% agro waste, while the sample containing 10% sugar cane bagasse ash showed the highest wear rate [191].…”

Nowadays, the drive for green products has undergone a rapid increase following the global ecoawareness and the severe regulations aimed at preventing the environment from further damage. The use of ecosafe constituents in materials for harsh applications, such as brake pad systems, can be a possible solution for reducing health hazards arising from particle release during braking. Based on this, the present study provides a bibliographic review of green alternative constituents for friction material formulation, focusing the attention on their influence on the tribological properties of the final composites. The traditional materials still used in commercial brake pads are shortly described, with the aim to provide an overview of the current situation. In the final part of the review, following the trend of circular economy, works dealing with the use of waste as an ingredient of friction materials are also reported. The whole literature screening points out that much work is still required to obtain completely green friction materials. Indeed, few works dealing with the phenolic resin replacement, proposing inorganic ecosafe materials such as geopolymers, are present. On the contrary, the use of natural fibers is widely investigated: palm kernel, flax, agave and aloe can be identified as promising constituents based on the literature results and the generated patents.

“…For several years, environmental issues have also started to concern manufacturers of brake pads. The first action in this regard was the elimination of asbestos from the production of friction materials, due to its carcinogenic properties, which was found in the 1970s [4,5]. Despite the fact that as a material in combination with copper fibers, it creates the best material for brakes due to resistance to high temperatures and stability of friction characteristics of brakes [6,21].…”

The article presents the results of the research of a railway disc brake in the evaluation of the weight wear of friction pads. The tests were carried out on a certified brake stand where the friction and mechanical characteristics of the brake are determined. The stand was additionally equipped with a thermal imaging camera to observe the contact of the pads with the brake disc. Attention was also paid to examining the influence of such parameters of the braking process as the contact surface of the pad with the disc, the thickness of the pads as a determinant of their initial wear, the pressure of the pads to the disc, braking mass and braking speed on the weight wear of the friction pads.
