Impact strength: Impact strength is the capability of a material to withstand suddenly applied loads in terms of energy. It is often measured with the Izod impact strength test or Charpy impact test, both of which measure the impact energy required to fracture a sample.

The braking performances and physical properties of brake pads containing SL, SAL and HL were evaluated based on several metrics: (1) friction coefficient – the resistance an object encounters in moving over another, (2) Mass wear – loss of material from a surface by means of some mechanical action, (3) Izod impact strength test – impact resistance properties, (4) Thickness swelling in water – effect of the absorbed water on its dimensions.
