Abstract
A tribological system, comprising a main body and a sandwich lubrication, in which the sandwich lubrication includes a binder-free solid lubricant layer comprising a solid lubricant, and a lubricant layer comprising a lubricant. The binder-free solid lubricant layer and the lubricant layer are present as separate layers on the main body and wherein the mass ratio of solid lubricant to lubricant is at most 0.05:1.
Claims19
A tribological system, comprising a main body and a sandwich lubrication, wherein the sandwich lubrication includes
- a binder-free solid lubricant layer comprising a solid lubricant, and
- a lubricant layer comprising a lubricant,
- wherein the binder-free solid lubricant layer and the lubricant layer are present as separate layers on the main body and wherein the mass ratio of solid lubricant to lubricant is at most 0.05:1, and
- wherein the lubricant is an aqueous lubricant.
A sandwich lubrication, comprising:
- a binder-free solid lubricant layer comprising a solid lubricant, and
- a lubricant layer comprising a lubricant, wherein the mass ratio of solid lubricant to lubricant is at most 0.05:1,
- wherein the binder-free solid lubricant layer and the lubricant layer are present as separate layers, and
- wherein the lubricant is an aqueous lubricant.
A method of manufacturing a tribological system, comprising the steps of:
- providing a main body;
- applying a binder-free solid lubricant layer comprising a solid lubricant on the main body;
- applying a lubricant layer comprising a lubricant on the main body provided with the binder-free solid lubricant,
- wherein the mass ratio of solid lubricant to lubricant is at most 0.05:1, such that the binder-free solid lubricant layer and the lubricant layer are present as separate layers on the main body, and
- wherein the lubricant is an aqueous lubricant.
