Effect of palm ash composition to the brake pad application

The asbestos fibre as a filler material in brake pad has been avoided due to its carcinogenic nature that might cause health risks. Asbestos has now been replaced by a mix of alternative fibres such as mineral fibres, cellulose, aramid, PAN, chopped glass, steel and other metal fibre. This research...
