Creating and Applying Antifriction Bearing Wood–Metal Materials

Abstract

Methods of improvement of the tribotechnical characteristics of composite materials, wood–metal, obtained by the introduction of optimization phases in a wood base are given. The proposed and investigated schemes and methods of forming antimic innovative wood–metal bearings with the use of modified timber and metal particles, made of various antifriction materials, are shown. Ex-plateruena under the action of high temperatures, i.e., heat storage fillers made in the form of capsules filled with a fusible alloy, are also proposed for wood–metal liners. The tribological capabilities of the new wrapped wood–metal liners consisting of successive layers of thermally conductive mesh or tape and wood veneer are studied.
