Tribology of selected ceramics at temperatures to 900 C

Conference · · Ceram. Eng. Sci. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:7169522
Results of fundamental and focused research on the tribological properties of ceramics are discussed. The basic friction and wear characteristics are given for ceramics of interest for use in gas turbine, adiabatic diesel, and Stirling engine applications. The importance of metal oxides in ceramic/metal sliding combinations is illustrated. The formulation and tribological additives are described. Friction and wear data are given for carbide and oxide-based composite coatings for temperatures to at least 900 C. 11 references.
