Abstract: Provided is a thermally-curable heat-conductive silicone grease composition which has a high shape-retaining property in an early stage even when the viscosity of the composition is low (i.e., the composition is easy to apply) in the early stage, and which becomes soft (has low hardness) after being cured. A thermally-curable heat-conductive silicone grease composition comprising, as essential components: (A) an organopolysiloxane having a viscosity of 100 to 100,000 mPa·s at 25° C.

Abstract: A composition for a wear-resistant and low-friction coating is presented. The coating composition includes a hard ceramic phase, a metallic binder phase and a lubricant phase. The lubricant phase includes a multi-component oxide. An article having a wear-resistant and low-friction coating and a method of making such a coating are also described.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes compositions and a method for forming such compositions. More specifically, inorganic microparticles and surface modified silica nanoparticles are mixed to form a composition. The surface modified silica nanoparticles are present in the composition in an amount sufficient to decrease the coefficient of friction relative to a comparable composition that is free of surface modified silica nanoparticles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a metal treatment composition including Tin (II) Chloride and processed montmorillonite clay. The addition of Tin (II) Chloride to the composition provides Tin for forming a ceramic-metal layer on the surfaces of the friction pair. Tin (II) Chloride provides Chlorine ions for forming Chloric films for protecting juvenile surfaces which form in the friction zone. The clay is heated and pulverized to produce a powder comprising both particles having crystalline layer structure and salts and oxides. The layered crystalline structure of the clay contains slip planes that transversely shift when tangential pressure from the friction pair is applied thereby lubricating the friction pair. The salts and oxides contribute to the formation of the ceramic-metal layer.

Abstract: A coating composition is described, containing (a) a metallic matrix based on nickel, cobalt, iron; or combinations thereof; (b) a ceramic phase, containing at least one metal boride or metal silicide compound; and (c) a lubricant phase. Methods of providing wear-resistance and low-friction characteristics to an article (e.g., a gas turbine) are also described, using the coating composition. Related structures are also discussed.

Abstract: A coating and bonding composition is disclosed which includes a suspending agent, bonding agent, thinning agent, and a metallic flake designed to bond a dissimilar metal to the thread surface to prevent seizing and galling.
