5 Characteristics
5.1 Structure
A bearing containing dispersed solid lubricants is made of sintered composite materials that contain solid
lubricants dispersed uniformly in the metal matrix and is manufactured by powder metallurgy (see
Figure 1).This document includes multi-layered bearings with the sintered layer on a steel backing and both
seamless and wrapped bushes (see Figure 2).Figure 3 shows a typical microstructure of the bearings containing dispersed solid lubricants. The
dispersed solid lubricants in the metal matrix vary in grain size and volume.b) Seamless bush

5.2 Lubricating mechanism
A bearing containing dispersed solid lubricants obtains its sliding performance from the self-lubricating
effects of solid lubricants and the mechanical strength of metal matrix.The sliding performance and mechanical strength vary according to the volume of solid lubricants. Higher
sliding performance requires more solid lubricants, while higher mechanical strength requires less solid
lubricants.Since solid lubricants are dispersed over the entire material, the bearings are particularly suitable for
extra low speed or micro-motion applications, minimising static friction to achieve smooth sliding at the
start of motion.The solid lubricants are drawn out over both surfaces from the bearing material when it slides against
the mating surface, forming a solid lubricant film. As the solid lubricant film is consumed, it is replenished
from the bearing material to maintain a continuous film throughout the life of the product (see Figure 4).
