Determining the optimum, resin ratio is important for the brake pad to show the best wear and braking performance. In this article, the impression of the novolac resin ratio (15% and 30%) on the perfor-mance of the brake pads at high temperatures was studied. Friction experiments of the brake pads were performed according to ASTM G99–95a test standard in Pin-on disc test device at 350 °C. The average friction coefficients obtained in the friction tests of 15% and 30% novolac resin samples at 500 rpm rotation speed, 350 ?C temperature, and 10 N load were 0.151 and 0.308, respectively. With the increase in the novolac res-in ratio, the hardness, density, and thermal conductivity of the brake pads have in-creased.en10.30939/ijastech..1087420info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBrake Pad|Novolac Resin;|High Temperature|Friction CoefficientArticle62196201
