Are ceramic brake pads good

Advantage:
1. The difference between ceramic brake pads and traditional brake pads is that there is no metal. Generally, metal will wear out during friction, but ceramics will not have this situation, and some metal brake pads are also very noisy. After ceramic brake pads are installed, abnormal noise will not be generated during normal driving. It’s more comfortable.
2. Whether the braking ability is good or not depends mainly on the friction coefficient. Everyone may not be very clear about this. During the braking process, heat is generated by friction and the working temperature increases. The friction material of general brake pads is affected by the temperature, and the friction coefficient begins to decrease. . In actual applications, friction will be reduced, thereby reducing the braking effect. Ceramic has the effect of high temperature resistance, so the friction coefficient will not change frequently, and there is no need to worry about the high temperature when it is used. Its stability is very good.
3. Long service life, no dust. The life of ceramic materials is 20%-50% longer than that of ordinary semi-metals.
4. It has good mechanical strength and physical properties. Able to withstand greater pressure and shearing force. And fast heat dissipation will not affect braking.
5. Ordinary brake pads have low thermal decay, high-temperature conditions and increased brake oil temperature during emergency braking will delay the braking and even lose the braking effect. The safety factor is low, and the ceramic is safer.

Disadvantages:
High price. Not suitable for heavy trucks.
