What are the components of automotive brake fluid?
1 Answers
Automotive brake fluid is composed of castor oil and low-carbon alcohols. Below is relevant information about brake fluid: 1. Brake fluid is the liquid medium that transmits braking pressure in hydraulic braking systems, used in vehicles with hydraulic braking systems. 2. Characteristics of brake fluid: (1) Effectively lubricates moving parts of the braking system: Extends the service life of brake wheel cylinders and other components; (2) Anti-corrosion and anti-rust properties: Non-corrosive to both metal and non-metal materials in the braking system; (3) Adaptability to various environments: Ensures flexible transmission of braking force under working conditions such as high temperature, extreme cold, high speed, and high humidity; (4) Functions of energy transmission and heat dissipation: Acts as a transmission medium.
