Among their topics are in-situ observations to improve the analysis of the scratch damage of coated polymeric surfaces, polymer composites for tribological applications in a range between liquid helium and room temperature,
self-lubricating and self-healing behavior of polymer matrix composites functionalized with microencapsulated chemicals, tribological studies of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene thin coatings on a silicon surface, and tribological aspects of polymer-based flexible electronic materials: from manufacturing to end-use applications.
With the new igus spherical balls made of the high-performance plastic iglide J, users can now rely on a
self-lubricating and maintenance-free solution.
Proprietary
self-lubricating PTFE fibers are applied directly to the steel.
to achieve a breakthrough in the use of
self-lubricating, spherical bearings in aircraft design that will improve performance and reduce cost for aerospace companies.
Built with durable components--including corrosion-resistant stainless steel springs, bronze bushings, drum shafts,
self-lubricating bearings and drop-forged steel hooks--the hoists ensure safe, reliable service.
Standard features include a load-centering limit switch, four-sided bellows safety skirt, a base-mounted maintenance bar to retain the lift in the up position for servicing, a square edge platform top to resist tipping, steel scissor legs, hardened chrome shafting, lifetime
self-lubricating aircraft bushings, and roll pins on all pivot points.
Market outlook of the global
self-lubricating bearings market
In addition to offering a low-volatile,
self-lubricating liquid silicone rubber (LSR), the company has made recent advancements in fiber-reinforced LSR and anti-static heat cured rubber (HCR) materials within its families of Silopren and Silplus elastomers.
Momentive's new
self-lubricating Silopren LSR 3376/50 boasts very low volatile levels without post-curing.
