Scientists have proven that dust from brake pads causes more harm to ecology than exhaust gases

The study was conducted by specialists of the British University of Southampton. According to published results, substances that fall into the atmosphere as a result of wear of the pads have a much more negative effect on nature than the exhausted gases of modern gasoline and diesel engines.

The brake pads were never distinguished by the benefit of ecology and human health. Initially, they included asbestos, which caused many lung diseases. Over time, harmful material was replaced with copper, which was supposed to correct the situation. In fact, it turned out that it also causes problems in the respiratory system. At the same time, copper is still used by most pad manufacturers.

Recently, the so -called organic pads have appeared on the market, the manufacturers of which are not rarely positioning them as less harmful versions. Scientists have found that the dust from organics is actually more harmful than the exhaust gases of modern diesel engines. Specialists tested several pads of different companies with different compositions. All details demonstrated an unsatisfactory result for the ecology and human body.

In December last year, American scientists said that the exhaust gases of cars cause psyche disorders. Children are most affected by children.
