摘要:
The outer surface of a rolling element (3) of a rolling bearing is coated with a lubricating film (4) having three layers (5, 6, 7). The bottommost layer (5) coated on the surface of the rolling element (3) is made of Sn; the intermediate layer (6) coated on the surface of the bottommost layer (5) is made of Ag; and the topmost layer (7) coated on the surface of the intermediate layer (6) is made of Pb. As a result of this construction, Ag serves as a binder between the Pb-Sn alloy and steel constituting an inner race member (1), an outer race member (2) and/or the rolling element (3), which in turn renders the lubricating film (4) wettable with respect to the surfaces of the inner and outer race members (1, 2) defining a race and the outer surface of the rolling element (3). Hence, stable lubrication between the bearing components can be implemented.

A lithium-air battery includes a lithium negative electrode, a positive electrode including a catalyst containing gold, and a non-aqueous electrolyte interposed between the positive electrode and the lithium negative electrode. The catalyst includes gold supported on a cerium-containing oxide, such as a cerium-zirconium compound oxide or a cerium-aluminum compound oxide. The amount of catalyst of the positive electrode is in the range of 0.01 to 50 weight percent relative to the total weight of the positive electrode.

摘要:
An apparatus for joining two ceramics using microwave energy, having a cavity resonator in which the ceramics are placed; a microwave-generator means for producing microwave radiation to be introduced into the cavity resonator; a pressurizer for pressing the joining surfaces of the ceramics against each other; and a temperature controller for controlling the temperature distribution of the ceramics in such a way that the temperature of the ceramics at the joining surfaces is highest and rapidly decreases toward the unjoined ends of the ceramics is disclosed. The microwave-generator may include a microwave oscillator, a klystron amplifier, and an isolator. The temperature controller can be a dielectric heater or a combination of a dielectric heater and a temperature difference-producer.
摘要:
Sputtering particles are deposited immediately after activating a surface of a substrate composed of a carbon-containing material. Accordingly, a process for reforming a surface of a substrate, a substrate with a reformed surface, and an apparatus therefor are provided in which the depositability and adhesiveness of the sputtering particles are improved. A vacuum ultraviolet light is generated by a laser beam. A surface of a substrate composed of a carbon-containing material is exposed to the generated vacuum ultraviolet light. As a result, the surface of the substrate is activated. Simultaneously therewith, a sputtering particles-generating device generates sputtering particles, such as neutral atoms, ions and clusters. The resultant sputtering particles are deposited on the activated surface of the substrate. Since the sputtering particles are deposited immediately after the surface of the substrate is activated, they are adhered firmly on the surface of the substrate.
