dc.descriptionOver the years, asbestos has been used as reinforcement material in brake lining production as a result of its good physical and tribological properties. However, recent studies have shown that asbestos poses a great health hazard which can result from its handling and breathing (NIH, 1989). As a result, it has lost its favor, resulting in the need to explore alternative materials. Hence, efforts by researcher have been geared toward finding a possible replacement for asbestos in the production of brake linings. These were exemplified by the work of several researchers who utilized other materials such as palm kernel shell (PKS), coconut shell, metal fibers, etc., for inclusion in brake lining in order to overcome environmental pollution (Ikpambese et al., 2016; Fono-Tamo and Koya, 2013). Also, a non-asbestos friction lining material was developed by Ibhadode and Dagwa (2008) using an agro-waste material–palm kernel shell, as a reinforcement material. Palm kernel shell (PKS) which was used as a reinforcement material was selected due to its favorable properties which superseded other agro-waste. The developed automobile disk brake pads using the derived friction material and the test results obtained indicated that high wear rate was observed on the PKS pad at high vehicular speeds of 80 km h À1 and above. Zaharudin et al.(2012) adopted Taguchi method to carry out a study on the effect of manufacturing parameters on the properties of friction materials. The parameters studied were molding pressure, molding temperature, and the molding time using semi-metallic friction materials and other additives. Physical properties such as …en_US
