New natural fibre reinforced composite brake friction material

This paper presents a new formulation of free asbestos brake friction materials with a view to replace the use of asbestos whose dust is carcinogenic and has a harmful effect to the human being. Five different laboratory formulations (such as, S1, S2, S3, S4 and S5) were selected with varying coir f...
