Description
Summary:In this study, the effect of sliding parameters on the wear behaviour of brake pad lining materials was analyzed. The test samples were procured and coded as TY, HN and MZ respectively. The sliding parameters considered for this research were application load, sliding speed and application time. The application load considered are those of vehicles gross weights ranging between 1500 - 3500 Kg, the sliding speed was varied between 100 - 200 rpm while the application time was from 20 - 100 seconds at an interval of 20 seconds. Using standard equipment and test methods, the test samples were subjected to elemental composition analysis, wear characteristics and microstructural examination. The elemental composition test carried out revealed that the reinforcing fibre which gives an optimum performance in the formulation of these brake pads was carbon. The wear characteristics was conducted using the pin on disc test method and the results showed that wear rate of brake pads lining materials increased with increase in applied load and sliding speed but decreased with an increase in the application time.
