Abstract

In this study, the properties of non-copper and non- asbestos friction materials were investigated using cellulose waste to make brake pads. Friction materials including 20% cellulose waste (rice husk and paper waste) were used to make industrial brake linings and the shear strength, wear rate and friction coefficient of the linings according to the relevant standards were tested. The results showed that the average of shear strength of brake pads made of rice husk in normal condition was 35% and after heating was 24% higher than the brake linings made of paper waste. Also, the average of friction coefficient of linings made of rice husk in the thermal stages of wear and friction test was 35% higher than that of the brake linings made of paper waste and the wear rate of linings made of rice paddy was 67% less than linings made of paper waste.  Also, all the properties of brake linings made of rice husk met the standard requirements. Thus, it can be said that by utilization of rice husk without copper and asbestos, the desirable properties of the brake pads can be achieved, and this formulation can be used in the production of automobile brake linings.
