SURFACE FOR REDUCED FRICTION AND WEAR AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

A process for producing an enhanced friction reducing surface wherein the process comprises the cleaning steps (100) including pre- cleaning a metal substrate surface (101), dry-blasting the surface with abrasive media (103), and removing residual residue (105). The process further comprising impingement steps (200) including preparing dry lubricant mixture (201), applying the mixture 203, and removing excess lubricant (205). Subsequently a low-temperature diffusion bonding (300) which may optionally be subjected to additiona treatments (400) such as application of a second lubricant mixture (450), and the article finalized by performing a final cleaning (500).
