  • Laminate Bearing And Methods Of Manufacturing The Same
    Publication number: 20140335336
    Abstract: A maintenance-free and self-lubricant slide bearing comprising a metal support, an intermediate adhesive layer applied directly thereto and a sliding layer based on UHMWPE. The bearing laminate is characterized by a high peel-strength and does not require a surface pre-treatment of the metal support to achieve a strong bonding of the UHMWPE sliding layer to the metal support. The preferred adhesive in the intermediate layer is an anhydride-grafted polyethylene. The invention further includes a process of making the bearing laminate.
