Abstract: The invention comprises bearing members having a coated wear surface applied by plasma-spraying an aggregate of particles thereon consisting of nickel-aluminum particles, nickel-molybdenum particles, tungsten carbide particles, and intermetallic alloy particles to form a high temperature, oxidation resistant, wear resistant, and scuff resistant coating. Alloying of the constituents in the final coating is desired and is achieved by encapsulating both the aluminum and molybdenum particles with nickel (alternatively the nickel-aluminum may be in the form of a bonded aggregate), by sintering the tungsten carbide in a matrix of cobalt, and by alloying nickel-cobalt, carbon, silicon, chromium, boron, and iron into an intermetallic alloy to form an aggregate of four types of particles for plasma-spraying onto the wear surface.

Abstract: An electrical contact material obtained through internally oxidizing a silver alloy which is the solid solution with 5 to 20 weight percent of one or more of the solute metal elements selected from tin, zinc and antimony and which contains 0.01 to 1.0% weight percent of bismuth. The silver alloy may also include up to 0.5 weight percent of ferrous metal or metals.

Abstract: An alloy for composite electrical contact materials which is composed of 5 to 10 weight percent of tin and 1.0 to 6 weight percent of indium, the balance being silver, said alloy being subjected to an internal oxidation. The alloy may contain, when added by one or more other solute metal elements selected from zinc, antimony, lead and bismuth, as much as 6 to 15 weight percent of tin and said other solute metal elements in total in which the latter are less than 30 percent of the former. The alloy may also comprise up to 0.5 weight percent of ferrous or alkali earth metals.

Abstract: A coated metallic sheet adapted for use in making a can for foodstuff or other container. This sheet can be made by coating, upon a material sheet, a composition of a resol-type thermosetting phenolformaldehyde resin and a bisphenol "A" type epoxy resin. In said phenol-formaldehyde resin, the ratio by weight of orthocresol to phenol is between 60:40 and 10:90. Said epoxy resin has a mean molecular weight of 800 or more and is used in an amount of 0.2 to 1.5 part by weight per 1 part by weight of said phenol-formaldehyde resin in said composition. This composition used for the sheet displays an excellent adhesiveness particularly with respective to the use of a polyamide type adhesive.

Abstract: A building product, such as a roofing shingle or the like, is provided with flame resistance and protected against actinic degradation, and fouling by algae and micro-organisms by flame-spraying a metal coating on at least one side of the product and thereafter applying a second flame-sprayed coating, of copper, on the first layer to cover completely at least the one side of the product.

Abstract: Ag-CdO type material suitable for use as an electrical contact material in a switching device such as a circuit breaking device is disclosed. The material contains Ag and CdO with an oxide of Sn and an oxide of an additive metal selected from Mg, Ca, or mixtures of oxides of such additive metals. The additive metal appears to form an oxide of the metal earlier during oxidation of the material than either the Sn or Cd thereby acting as a nucleating site for the formation of the oxides of the Sn and Cd. The oxide of the metals appears to tend to grow as a mixture of the oxides of the additive metal, Cd and Sn. This material has good high temperature properties, undergoes oxidation of the oxidizable constituents at a high rate and has a fine oxide particle size.The method of making the Ag-CdO type material.

Abstract: Relative sliding members comprising as materials in combination a nitrified sintered alloy and an alloy cast iron, chemical components of which are well selected in percentage so as to provide better wear resistance and machinability.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a plastic molding having satin finish type metallic luster. More particularly, it provides a molding of high accuracy and good appearance. The plastic molding of the present invention is produced by first applying satin finishing to the surface of the molding, providing a conductive coating thereon, applying polishing treatment on the surface of the coating, and forming a metal film thereon by metal plating.
