  OK, that defines CF nicely. Now how about heat rejection? Is there a
  paramater to indicate the ability of the pad/adhesive/backing-plate
  system  to reject heat, to insulate the caliper and fluid from the high
  temp of the friction material/rotor? Are these specs published too?

  How about applying something like heat-sink compound to the wheel-rotor
  interface to transfer more heat away from the rotor/pad/caliper system?
  Anyone try this?
