A woman has a brother on her father's side only, not on her mother's side. Is her brother considered a mahram to her adult daughter?

Yes, because he is her maternal uncle. He is considered a mahram to her daughter because he is her mother's brother on the father's side, so he is her maternal uncle. Yes.
