Its surface is normalised by the application of a thermally sprayed coating that is compatible with current brake pad technology.
Thermally sprayed ceramic coatings as friction surfaces of brake rotors.
This paper discusses optimisation of the spray material and sprayed coating.

A lightweight brake rotor has been developed based on a metal matrix composite mmc disc.
Typical thickness of 0 003 to 0 030 hard ceramic coating materials.
After the coating cures it ends up as a thin dry film approximately 8 micrometers thick and gives the rotor a metallic silver look.
