Briefly described, embodiments of this disclosure include articles and methods of making articles.
COATED STEEL SHEET AND METHOD OF PRODUCING SAME
Provided is a coated steel sheet having excellent press formability. The coated steel sheet includes a base steel sheet and, on at least one side of the base steel sheet, a film containing organic resin and wax. The organic resin is at least one selected from the group consisting of acrylic resins, epoxy resins, urethane resins, phenolic resins, vinyl acetate resins, and polyester resins. The wax is polyolefin wax having a melting point that is 100 C. or more and 145 C. or less and an average particle size that is 3.0 m or less. The proportion of the wax in the film is 5 mass % or more and 70 mass % or less. Coating weight variation is 0.300 or less. Coating weight .sub.W of the film is 0.3 g/m.sup.2 or more.
SLIDING COMPOSITION AND USE THEREOF, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SLIDING COMPOSITION
One aspect of the present invention relates to a sliding composition film or a method for producing a sliding composition, the sliding composition including an ethylene/-olefin/nonconjugated polyene copolymer (A); a propylene-based random copolymer (B1) and a propylene homopolymer (B2), having a melt flow rate of 0.1 to 4.0 g/10 min; high-density polyethylene (C1) having a density of 940 to 970 kg/m.sup.3 and a MFR of 0.1 g/10 min or less; ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (C2) having an intrinsic viscosity [] of 10 to 40 dl/g (in decalin at 135 C.), an average particle size D.sub.50 of 22 to 50 m, and a density of less than 940 kg/m.sup.3; and a silicone compound (D) having a kinematic viscosity of 3,000 to 1,000,000 cSt (at 25 C.) in each predetermined content, in which the ethylene/-olefin/nonconjugated polyene copolymer (A) is at least partially cross-linked with a phenolic resin-based cross-linking agent.
SELF-LUBRICATING LINERS FREE OF POLYFLUOROALKYL SUBSTANCES (PFAS)
A self-lubricating liner is provided that has a matrix material and an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) lubricant embedded in the matrix material. The matrix material and the lubricant are free of polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) such as, but not limited to, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). In some embodiments, the liner further includes a fabric base embedded in the matrix material.
