Tin- and Copper-Based Electrochemical Coatings for Sliding Bearings

摘要

Copper- and tin-based electrochemical coatings are obtained. The results of disk - shoe couple tests show the wear and wear rate of the coatings; their structure is studied demonstrating that bi- and tricomponental electrochemical coatings boost considerably the copper and bronze wear resistance, making them useful for the manufacture of sliding bearings.
