Abstract:
There is provided an improved process for isothermal shaping of a titanium-containing workpiece in a hot die. A precoat lubricant composition including a glassy component and a solid lubricant such as graphite dispersed in an organic medium is applied to the workpiece, and the workpiece heated to a temperature sufficient to remove the organic medium to leave a residue of glassy material and graphite on the workpiece. The workpiece is then inserted in a heated split die, and the die loaded to alter the shape of the workpiece. The ratio of the solid lubricant to the glassy component is at least one to one. The particle size of the glassy component is important to the surface character of the finally shaped workpiece.
Abstract:
A solid lubricant comprising a substantially amorphous carbon micro-sphere selected from carbon micro-beads and carbon micro-balloons having a particle size of 0.1 to 1,000.mu. and a specific gravity of the particle of 0.2 to 2.0, which has excellent low frictional coefficient and wearing resistance.
Abstract:
A forging compound particularly adapted for hot die dwell forging of titanium and its alloys comprises boundary layer particles (boron nitride or graphite) and a major quantity (more than 60% by weight) of vitreous components. The vitreous components comprise diboron trioxide and silica frit containing a metal oxide wetting agent. In a preferred form, the forging lubricant comprises about 14 to 25% by weight boron nitride particles, balance, vitreous components. The latter comprise about 60% to 75% by weight diboron trioxide, balance silica glass containing cobalt oxide wetting agent in an amount of 1.0 to 3% by weight of the vitreous components. All the foregoing ingredients may be dispersed in a coatable carrier preferably comprising a solvent, e.g., xylene, in which a resin binder is dissolved. A method of using the lubricant includes coating workpieces with the lubricant, heating the workpieces to forging temperature, and imposing forging pressure on the workpiece within an enclosed die for a dwell period to creep-flow the workpiece metal into conformity with the forging die.
Abstract:
A method of making composite material which provides low friction surfaces for materials in rolling or sliding contact. The composite material is self-lubricating and oxidation resistant up to and in excess of about 930.degree. C. The composite material is comprised of a metal component which lends strength and elasticity to the structure, a fluoride salt component which provides oxidation protection to the metal but may also enhance the lubrication qualities of the composite.
Abstract:
A new coating composition, coated article and method are disclosed herein dealing with the preparation of coated surfaces which are useful, for example, in glass molding wherein a relatively lubricious, abrasion resistant surface is desired under conditions of high operating temperatures. The coating composition in its most basic aspect involves a dispersion of an aluminum phosphate and a very fine particle size pigment material together with other materials including novel dispersion stabilizing ingredients and a special water dispersible resinous film-modifying agent.
