Research abstract
Triton Systems proposes a high performance and smart material solution to produce more durable and reliable brake components for Army Light Vehicles. The technical approach is to develop a process for the advanced C-BN (carbon reinforced boron nitride)braking material using a unique family of proprietary ceramic precursors and an innovative catalytic process that is scalable and traceable to low cost manufacture. Furthermore, Triton will incorporate a newly developed real-time health monitoring systemto improve safety and decrease O&S costs. During Phase I, the Triton Team will demonstrate the preparation of C-BN composites by the new scalable process and incorporate already proven direct contact
