Abstract
A metallic matrix composite coating has been developed that imparts unique surface properties to a wide range of metallic substrates.
The coating, based upon conventional electroless nickel technology, incorporates sub-micron particles of PTFE distributed uniformly throughout the coating thickness.
The presence of the PTFE provides a continuous reservoir of lubricating particles giving a low friction surface that is accurate over the most complex components and that has many potential aerospace applications.
