Abstract
Abstract: Asbestos is used in the manufacture of automobile brake linings, which has negative effects on both people and the environment. As a result, organic brake lining without the use of asbestos material evolved. Asbestos-free brake lining materials come in a variety of forms, and these novel formulations offer excellent performance too. The material used to replace it ought to maintain qualities of standard brake pad risks. A new brake pad was produced using banana peels waste to replace asbestos. The produced composites were mixed with carbon powders, epoxy and hardener in predetermined ratios. The current study is being conducted to create three different samples of brake pads by altering the combination of carbon powder and banana peel powder. The banana peel was varied from 35 to 25 wt. % with a 5 wt. % interval to create test samples. Morphology, physical, mechanical and wear properties of the brake pad were studied. The results showed that the produced banana peel composite of composition carbon 35% and banana peel powder 25% gives better properties compared with other compositions. According to the findings of this study, banana peel particles may be utilized efficiently as a replacement for asbestos in the fabrication of brake pads.
