Solid film lubricant laminates and their use in glass manufacturing

摘要

Laminates of a metal base having a plasma or flame sprayed metal coating thereon, which coating comprises at least about 50% by weight of a transition metal, and including a layer of a solid film lubricant of effective lubricating amounts of a lubricating pigment dispersed in a polymeric binder on said flame sprayed or plasma sprayed metal coating. These laminates may be used at various glass contacting locations for handling glass in its process of manufacture.
