Researchers found that brake-wear particulate matter has a greater detrimental effect on lung cells than diesel exhaust particles.
Brake pad dust can be worst than car exhaust
A new British study suggests that microscopic particles from brake pads could be more toxic than emissions from diesel engines. This finding raises concern
Brake dust is harder on your lungs than diesel exhaust, study suggests
In a recent study, researchers found that tiny brake dust particles are potentially more toxic than diesel exhaust which could affect your health.
Could brake dust be worse for you than diesel fumes?
Particulate matter (PM) from brake pads could be just as bad for your lungs as diesel emissions, CarExpert has cited a recent University of Southampton study as saying. Fine PM of less than 2.5 microns
Copper brake pad emissions can be worse than diesel exhaust
The debate around vehicle-generated non-exhaust emissions took turn this week when research undertaken by the University of Southampton found that particulate matter from copper-enriched brake pads is more hazardous to health than that from a diesel engine.
