Abstract: An alumina/titanium silicon carbide composite material is prepared by making titanium aluminum carbide (Ti3AlC2) in uniform contact with silicon monoxide (SiO), and carrying out vacuum sintering. The composite material is obtained through mutual diffusion of aluminum and silicon and has high compactness and stable performance. In the composite material, the alumina is generated by means of a reaction between the titanium aluminum carbide and the silicon monoxide, and can be uniformly wrapped around surfaces of titanium silicon carbide crystals to form a relatively compact oxide film, such that substance exchange between a matrix and the outside is hindered, and overall antioxidation of the composite material is improved. Toughness of the composite material is enhanced by means of the titanium silicon carbide. The prepared composite material has relatively high purity, relatively low sintering temperature, and relatively high bending strength. The process is simple and convenient for industrial production.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a bearing assembly comprising: an outer race having an inner surface; an inner race having an outer surface, the inner surface of the outer race and the outer surface of the inner race defining a bearing assembly raceway; a plurality of main rollers positioned within the bearing assembly raceway, the main rollers in contact with the inner surface of the outer race and the outer surface of the inner race; a plurality of mediate rollers positioned within the bearing assembly raceway counter-rotating with the main rollers such that each of the mediate rollers is in rolling contact with a pair of the plurality of main rollers; and a cage positioned in the bearing assembly raceway for at least partially bounding each of the mediate and main rollers.
