Abstract:
The present invention includes a method for the manufacture of a bearing seal which includes providing a polymer and/or a filler coated with a polymer and thereafter heating the coated filler to bond the copolymer to the filler. Following cooling of the coated filler, it is pulverized and added to granular polytetrafluoroethylene. This admixture is then mixed to obtain a uniform blend and thereafter shaped by compacting and heating into a preselected form. Fillers suitable for the present invention may be carbon, metal, glass, carbide, disulfide, polymeric, polyester fluoride and ceramic fibers.
Abstract:
Improved composite bearings are provided employing cold forming and sintering techniques. Improvements in compositions for impregnating porous layers of composite bearings are provided comprising lead or lead alloy, perfluorinated polymer, particulate thermoplastic polymer and clay in particular proportions. When such materials are formed into bearings and subsequently sintered, improved resistance to stripping and wear is provided.
Abstract:
A part is made of a material comprising less than 90% by weight of a polymer selected from the group consisting of polytetrafluoroethylene, polyurethane, nitrile, fluoroelastomer, and polyphenylene sulfide; and more than 10% by weight of another material, comprising about 15% to 60% by volume of grains of titanium carbide dispersed through a metal matrix.
Abstract:
A thread sealing and lubricating composition which can be employed at elevated temperatures without carburization of stainless steel fittings is disclosed. The composition contains 8-25% finely divided copper flakes, 5-20% finely divided aluminum particles, and 4-15% non-metallic, non-carbon powder suspended in a petroleum vehicle. The preferred composition contains 10% copper flakes, 5% aluminum powder, 5% non-metallic powder and 80% viscous petroleum vehicle.
Abstract:
An antifriction paste containing epoxy resin, molybdenum disulphide, graphite, aluminum, copper, alumosilicate and polyethylenepolyamine, the components being used in the following proportions (in parts by weight):epoxy resin: 40-80molybdenum disulphide: 15-30graphite: 10-15aluminum: 5-10copper: 5-10alumosilicate: 8-15polyethylenepolyamine: 5-10.The antifriction paste may also contain a solvent for the epoxy resin in an amount from 5 to 30 parts by weight. This paste is suitable for both small-and large-size friction assemblies. On the basis of this paste a solid lubricating coating with high antifriction performance is produced. Thus, a coefficient of sliding friction f.sub.fr. at a sliding speed V=0.06 m/s at a load P=10 kgf/cm.sup.2 is 0.2; linear wear rate I.sub.h under the same conditions is 1.0.10.sup.-9, and service life is as high as 500 km.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a high-temperature lubricant for the heat treatment of metals, said lubricant consisting of a mixture of pulverulent materials. The aim of the invention is to provide a high-temperature lubricant with good free-flowing properties and behaviour for dissolving scale on heated metallic surfaces, said lubricant being applied in a powder form and enabling a good covering of the metallic surface, having good free-flowing properties without much agglutination even after a long storage period under production conditions, and avoiding the use of graphite. To this end, the mixture contains at least the following components: a) a secondary and/or tertiary calcium phosphate compound, b) a fatty acid or a fatty acid salt, c) boric acid, a boric acid salt (borate) and/or a mineral containing a boric acid salt (borate) and d) condensed alkali phosphate. The constituents of the mixture have an average particle size of 150 µm and the lubricant does not contain any added graphite.
Abstract:
A lubricant coating disposed between a substrate and a counter surface comprises a reaction layer immediately adjacent the substrate. A bonding layer is immediately adjacent the reaction layer, with the bonding layer comprising a first composition. A low friction, lubricious layer is immediately adjacent the bonding layer, with the lubricious layer comprising a second composition that is different from the first composition.
