An anti-friction lacquer has a resin matrix of a polymer and functional fillers containing mixed-phase oxides having a specified grinding hardness and proportion and optionally contain further functional fillers. A sliding element is also disclosed having a metallic substrate layer and a coating applied to the substrate that is made of at least in part of the anti-friction.

In relation to the NAO friction material free of copper component, this invention is to provide the friction material that prevents the occurrence of metal catch while securing sufficient wear resistance. In the friction material manufactured by forming the NAO friction material composition which is free of copper component, the above-described friction material composition does not contain metal simple substance or alloy and contains, as the lubricant, metal sulfide having 600 centigrade or higher decomposition temperature to be decomposed into metal and sulfur, 2.0-5.0 weight % of graphite and a zirconium silicate as an abrasive material. Here, the metal sulfide is not a molybdenum disulfide or a tungsten disulfide. Especially, the content of the metal sulfide is preferably 0.5-2.0 weight % relative to the total amount of the friction material composition.

Provided is a mixed powder for powder metallurgy that contains a readily available compound as a lubricant, does not need to contain a stain-causing metal soap, has excellent ejection properties and compressibility, and can exhibit excellent fluidity without deteriorating the ejection properties or the compressibility even in the case of further containing carbon black. The mixed powder for powder metallurgy comprising an (a) iron-based powder and a (b) lubricant, wherein the (b) lubricant is an ester of disaccharide and fatty acid represented by R—COOH, and the R is an alkyl group having 11 or more carbon atoms or an alkenyl group having 11 or more carbon atoms.

A lubricant composition comprising: (i) silver or gold nanoparticles, each of which is encapsulated by a layer of alkylthiol or alkylamine molecules; (ii) palladium or platinum nanoparticles, each of which is encapsulated by a layer of alkylthiol or alkylamine molecules; and (iii) a fluid in which components (i) and (ii) are present. Further described are methods for applying the lubricant composition onto a mechanical device for which lubrication is beneficial, with resulting improvement in friction and wear reduction and/or corrosion inhibition.

The present invention provides an application of nano copper in a cutting fluid. The nano copper is self-dispersible nano copper with an organic long-carbon chain, wherein the surface of copper metal is coated with a long carbon chain organic matter, and the long chain organic matter is dialkyl dithiophosphoric acid (HDDP) and a derivative thereof. In the present invention, the nano copper substitutes functional additives which comprises one or more of a preservative, an anti-rust agent, a sterilizing agent, a compression-resisting agent and a lubricant to solve the technical problems of the existing fluid in the prior art being unable to simultaneously have efficient anti-corrosion, anti-rust, compression-resistant, lubricating and sterilizing properties as well as the variety, the relatively high amount, the high cost and the limited selection of added additives.
